Texas A&M’s Cameron Champ Low beginner Heading Into Weekend At Erin Hills

Cameron Champ is one of the longest hitters at the U.S. Open. He keeps to himself while he plays. There is a quiet confidence about him as he makes his way around Erin Hills.

Walker, who won the P.G.A. Champion ship last July, endured several months of brain fog, a shortened fuse and extreme fatigue before receiving a diagnosis in April. “I was pretty sick there for a while,” Walker, 38, said. “I did not feel worth a flip.” Erin Hills’s fescue, knee high in some places, is part of the challenge here for the players, but it is also a hospitable spot for bugs and a potential health hazard for everybody who treads on it, including caddies, volunteer marshals, securi...
