Scene and heard

No rain yet, so hopefully we'll get a full day of golf in. Soren Hansen is the early leader at 2-under, making birdie on Nos. 10 and 11, his first two holes. There's a big group at 1-under, including Phil Mickelson, who just birdied the 11th (he also started on the back nine).

Tiger Woods recovered slightly, making two back-nine birdies to get it back to even-par, but then the wheels came off. A double bogey on No. 15 was followed by a bogey on the 16th and a closing bogey on No. 18. He signed for a 4-over 74, his highest first-round score at a US Open since 2006.

New Bedford's Kevin Silva has played 16 holes and is 8-over. Michael Welch from Quincy tees off in 30 minutes.

The grounds are getting extremely muddy in the spectator areas, so if anyone's coming down, dress appropriately.
