Dustin Johnson played like the world’s No. 1 on Thursday at Shinnecock Hills.
Johnson, the 2016 U.S. Open champion a Oakmont, holed this bunker shot at the par-4 eighth to grab a share of the Day 1 lead, at 2 under par.

Not a bad follow-up for a guy who holed his approach shot on the final hole of his most recent event en route to victory.
Johnson then made a 22-foot birdie putt at the par-3 11th to take sole possession of the top spot, before giving that stroke back with a bogey at the 12th.
