ERIN, Wis. Paul Casey began his round with an eagle on Thursday at the U.S. Open, added a birdie at the second and narrowly missed going 4 under through three holes on his way to a round he called truly fun.He described Erin Hills as benign for Round 1 and moved into a share of second place with a birdie at the 18th hole for a 6-under 66 that left him a stroke behind Rickie Fowler. He then offered a foreboding forecast.Its not going to last, he smiled. We're all interested to see where the pin positions are going to be tomorrow and if there's a knee-jerk reaction.Casey has played in enough U.S. Opens to know that Thursdays conditions are not the norm and the field for the 117th edition shouldnt get used to the softer side of the championship, which is why he made the most of the opportunity.

The Englishman chipped in from 32 yards at the first for eagle and converted from 4 feet to begin his day at what was an entirely different U.S. Open.From a setup I prefer this. From an architectural point of view, it doesn't bother me but I prefer a golf course where we can make some birdies for sure, he said.Caseys round was a bit of a surprise considering his abbreviated preparation, he played just a single 18-hole practice round and walked the course a second time, and how difficult could have played had overnight rains not softened the greens. I would have snapped your arm off for a 6 under, he said. I watched Rickie this morning. I was hoping and praying if I could get the same kind of conditions and hoping and praying I would be half as good as Rickie Fowler.This is the 170th major championship round of Casey's career and the first time he's posted a round lower than 5 under.
Casey played alongside Mickelson in the final round of the PGA Championship at Bethpage on Sunday and experienced first-hand how popular the five-time major is with the raucous New York crowds.
