Big names miss cut

World number one Johnson, who recorded his first major victory in this tournament at Oakmont a year ago, flirted with the projected cut mark all day. He opened on three over but birdied the first two holes.
However, he was unable to build on that momentum and was still one over par after a birdie on the 12th.
Bogeys on the 13th and 14th dropped him back to three over and a further shot went on the 17th.
Northern Ireland's McIlroy, who was playing his first tournament after a month out injured and only his seventh of the year, signed for a one-under 71, after knocking in four birdies in his final six holes, but the damage was done by his six-over 78 in round one.
"I showed up for the last six holes at least," joked world number two McIlroy, who misses his second successive US Open cut.
"I saw some positives on the back nine to take into next week and, even though this is disappointing, the last two rounds will serve me well in this busy summer."
World number three Day followed his opening 79 with a 75 to limp out on 10 over.
"It's been the best preparation going into a major in my career," said the Australian, who conceded: "I was in the hay too much over the last couple of days."

Casey keeps composure

After opening with a six-under 66, Casey was one off the overnight lead as he went out among the early starters on Friday.
He started on the 10th, birdied the 11th but bogeyed the 12th before coming unstuck on the 14th. He was within 100 yards of the green after two shots but hit his third in to deep rough and took five from there to post a triple-bogey eight.
A bogey on 15 dropped him to two under but a run of five birdies followed to catapult him to the top of the leaderboard.
"It's very difficult to get through a major championship, let alone a US Open, without a blemish on your card," the 39-year-old told BBC Sport.
"I made a complete mess on the 14th. It's how you react to it. I tried to take my medicine and then messed up the next hole. But I got on a wonderful birdie streak.
"It was important to do that. I didn't change the game plan. John, my caddie and I kept communication great. We talked it out and got back to hitting the fairways and doing the basics and that led to some birdies on the front nine. I'm really, really happy with it."

Fleetwood finds the rhythm

Southport's Fleetwood said it would be "nice to sit down to dinner knowing you're top of the US Open leaderboard" after overcoming "a ropey start" to his second round.
The 26-year-old bogeyed the first hole but had three birdies and 12 pars before dropping his next shot on the 17th. However, he finished his round well with a birdie at the par-five 18th.
"I was enjoying it," he told BBC Sport. "I had a couple of bad drives early in the round and I had to focus on my rhythm and slow things down but as I got into the round it became more natural and I hit a lot of good shots and felt comfortable out there.
"I've never led a US Open, so it will be a very cool experience."
