US Open: Friday pin placements

USGA steps it up from yesterday's locations, below...

On 13, good chance for Bubba's fade to find the hazard

On 14, with a front hole location, you may see some shots roll back down the fairway

A mild hole location on 8 that might yield a few birdies


Generally speaking, pretty tame locations.

The front pin positions on #3, #13 & #17 will be very tough. I would expect to see guys playing short on #3 and chipping/putting on to the green.

Of the 18 holes, 12 have the holes cut within 4 paces of the edge of the green.  Ouch!
