The second Major of the year, the US Open gets underway today at Erin Hills.

Rory McIlroy plays alongside world number 3, Jason Day and Masters runner-up, Justin Rose.

That trio heads out around ten-past-8, Irish time.

Shane Lowry’s group tees off just before 8.

While Graeme McDowell is among the earlier starters – playing in a group with Lee Westwood and Ross Fisher – they begin at 2pm, Irish time.

World number 1 Dustin Johnson plays alongside Jordan Spieth and Martin Kaymer.

The defending champion is not in the best of form having missed the cut at the Memorial last time out.

But Johnson has no worries about a lack of momentum.
