  • It had been 40 years since a European golfer claimed the U.S. Open title. But Graeme McDowell, of Northern Ireland, felt at home at Pebble Beach and ended the drought in 2010. Relive the full story in this episode of "My U.S. Open," in partnership with Rolex.

    I saw him at the liv event just outside of Boston last year. He was in the left trees with a bunch of spectators including me. He was stymied. One kid was saying how he would hit the shot and Graham had no problem talking with the kid and laughing with the kid. Most tour players I don't think would have done that. Seems like a phenomenal human being. He's in my all-time favorite players list no doubt

    Glad to see gmac qualify for the open in his home town of portrush here in the North of ireland. Always been my favourite Irish player.seems like a good bloke and always tips his hat to the Irish back home. As for the accent, he's been living in the US since his college days so big deal. I think he'll do well at pebble again and he could be a contender in portrush. Good luck graeme.

    Pleased that you’ve qualified for Royal Portrush, I listened to a podcast featuring an interview with yourself and your honesty about competing with the new crop of athletic powerhouse’s was so refreshing. Best of luck at Pebble too G Mac.

    2:06 This is a drone footage of the second hole well after the 2010 US Open. You can see separation between the two right greenside bunkers. In 2010, there was only one bunker to the right of the green, and DJ's ball went into an appendage. A couple years after, Pebble Beach Company extended the appendage and created a walkway through, and now you have two bunkers to the right of the green instead of one.

    Curious to know who the guy with his dad was at the end, Graham never mentioned him. Great round of golf from what seems a nice likeable guy.

      Armchair golf analyst. Yeah Dustin has had more success and is arguably a better player. It doesn't devalue Mcdowell's win here though, that course was playing tough and he was the only one who was able to weather it. Golf tournaments are 4 rounds, you don't win by a fluke. You win by being the best player in the field that week and maybe a little luck on top
