Patrick Reed sets early lead at US Open
Ryder Cup star Patrick Reed set the early clubhouse target as the third round of the 117th US Open turned into a shootout at a rain-softened Erin Hills.
Almost an inch of rain fell on the course overnight and Reed, who beat Rory McIlroy in the opening singles at Hazeltine last year, was one of many players to take advantage in pursuit of his first major title.
