Thursday’s opening round was disrupted by a more than two-hour fog delay and ultimately suspended because of darkness, forcing several players to return Friday morning to complete their first rounds. Former U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark emerged as the player to catch, reaching 6-under through 16 holes and building a four-shot advantage before play was halted. Clark took advantage of calmer late-afternoon conditions with a birdie-birdie-eagle stretch that vaulted him atop the leaderboard.

The chasing pack remains loaded with major champions and contenders. Rory McIlroy battled difficult conditions to post a 1-under 69, while Jon Rahm, Matt Fitzpatrick, Dustin Johnson, and Gary Woodland all remained within striking distance with holes left to complete. Meanwhile, World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler opened with a 2-over 72 as he continues his bid to complete the career Grand Slam after winning the PGA Championship and The Open last year.

Friday figures to be a marathon day at Shinnecock. Players still on the course will finish Round 1 beginning in the morning before quickly turning around for their second rounds, creating the possibility for significant leaderboard movement. Shinnecock’s firm fairways, punishing fescue, and ever-changing coastal winds have already proven capable of producing big numbers, and with the cut line looming, every shot will carry added importance as the field tries to survive one of golf’s toughest major tests and earn a spot for the weekend.
