speaking of par, how about andrew parr. >> old man parr is a great score in the u.s. open, insert your favorite cliche, parr begins with a birdie. jeff brehaut, on 17, right hole location on this par 3. you see the lens inundated with water. >> one under par through 11. >> ryan spears. hit the stick and drops. that might have rolled forever. >> one under par leading the u.s. open. >> he can say whatever comes from mr. spears, he can say "i slept on the lead at the u.s. open." he doesn't need to add "it was only after three holes and half the field didn't start." brehaut, edfors and parr your leaders, and spears -- nobody finished and nobody started in the afternoon -- all these big players, els, garcia, goosen, kim, mcilroy, mickelson, mediate, perry, scott and villegas, none had a chance to put a peg in the ground. andy, because this is the u.s. open maybe we make this out to be worse than it really is. you were out there in it. how bad was it? >> it was miserable, absolutely miserable, one thing because it was 60 degrees and there was enough wind that there was wind
