The Latest: Henley has 1st struggles in US Open

SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (AP) The Latest on Friday’s second round of the U.S. Open (all times local):

11:20 a.m.

The first hole at Shinnecock Hills is the fourth-easiest hole on the course, but it isn’t playing that way for Tiger Woods.

After a triple bogey on the par-4, 399-yard hole in the opening round, Woods had a double bogey on Friday. That’s half of the 10 strokes he’s lost to par on just one hole.

Woods’ tee shot with a 2-iron looked good, giving him a good lie on the right side of the fairway. But his approach went askew to the right and landed in the deep rough. His third shot rolled off the green and then he pitched to about 8 feet. He missed the bogey putt.

The cut was projected for 6 over in the morning, but that could creep lower if Shinnecock Hills continues to torment the golfers. Woods hasn’t made the cut at the U.S. Open since 2013.

10:40 a.m.

First-round co-leader Russell Henley was doing just fine in the second round of the U.S. Open…

Steve Kerr was pleasantly surprised to get a congratulatory text from Tiger Woods

But everyone still likes head coach Steve Kerr. Everyone, including Tiger Woods, apparently.
On Thursday, Kerr was asked on 95.7 The Game if he got any surprise texts following the Warriors' third NBA title in four years and he singled out the 14-time major champ.
“I don’t want to be a name-dropper but I guess the one that kind of (surprised me) was Tiger Woods,” Kerr said. “That was pretty cool.”
Name-drop all you want, Steve. You're the man. And we're talking about Tiger freaking Woods.
So how did these two guys become acquainted? Kerr is an avid golfer, but he went on to say in the interview that he and Tiger bonded “over our back problems” last year.
We're glad to see both guys are..
