Monty makes the right impression

Colin Montgomerie rolled back the years to claim the lead in the 106th US Open today.

Montgomerie – without a top-10 finish in the event since 1997 – carded a one-under-par 69 at Winged Foot for a one-shot lead over Phil Mickelson and Jim Furyk, and was the only player in the first half of the field to break par.
