BROOKLINE - The third major of the season, the U.S. Open is one of five events on the 2021-22 PGA TOUR Season that awards 600 FedEx Cup points to the winner of the tournament. Others include, The PLAYERS Championship (won by Cameron Smith), Masters (Scottie Scheffler), PGA Championship (Justin Thomas), and the U.S. Open and The Open Championship. The 2022 U.S. Open field includes 29 of the top 30 players in the FedExCup standings, led by No. 1 Scottie Scheffler (No. 24 J.J. Spaun is not in the field).

TL’s Wedge for an Edge: This week the PGA Fantasy Golf Tour is a home game for those of us residing in the Greater Boston area. … At the U.S. Open, the course is challenging, so accuracy will play a part of my choices. This week at The Country Club, I’m going with Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, Sam Burns and the “hot” Justin Rose (60) last weekend in final round at RBC. Reserves: Viktor Hovland and Collin Morikawa. For the Tour One and Done game? Koepka.
