Latest updates from day two’s play at OakmontOfficial live leaderboard | Drop Matt an emailBrooks Koepka finds the par-five 12th in two big bloots, then nearly makes the eagle putt from 26 feet. Not quite, but that’s back-to-back birdies for Brooks, a fine response to that opening bogey. He closes in on the lead at -3.

JT shot 76 yesterday, and surviving the cut is already looking like a pipe dream. He’s +9.Jordan Spieth can’t make his par putt on 2. He slips back to +1.
