Cameron Smith showcased steady golf performance in the first two rounds of the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina. Posting scores of 71-72, the Australian pro finished 3 over par after 36 holes, securing his spot for the weekend, trailing leader Ludvig Aberg by eight strokes.
Smith’s familiarity with the layout of Pinehurst, designed by Donald Ross and reminiscent of Australian Sandbelt courses, garnered attention. Additionally, his consecutive weekend appearances at the year’s previous two major championships, including a notable T-6 finish at the Masters in April, added to the confidence in his performance.
Despite his solid play, an intriguing aspect of Smith’s week at Pinehurst is the unique shirt he sported during the third round, featuring a periodic table of alcohol design.
