By Frank Pingue OAKMONT, Pennsylvania (Reuters) -Overnight U.S. Open leader J.J. Spaun shook off his first bogey of the week to reach the midway mark of his second round level with Thriston Lawrence at Oakmont Country Club where Rory McIlroy was flirting with the projected cut line.

J.J. Spaun finishes the first round of the U.S. Open with a one-shot lead after Scottie Scheffler struggles with a round of 73.

America’s Sam Burns holds a one-shot lead into Sunday’s final round of the US Open after the third round at Oakmont. The 28-year-old world number 22 posted three birdies and two bogeys in his one-under 69 as he maintained his overnight lead and moved to four under par after 54 holes.
