U.S. Open Round 3 tee times: Ludvig Åberg takes solo lead at midway point at Pinehurst

Ludvig Åberg is playing in his first ever U.S. Open this week in North Carolina

We’ve reached the midway point of the third major championship of the year.

Ludvig Åberg held on to take the solo lead after his 1-under 69 on Friday at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina. That moved him to 5-under halfway through the U.S. Open. He's competing in his first U.S. Open ever, and looking to be the first tournament rookie to pull off the win in more than 100 years.

Matthieu Pavon nearly joined Åberg at 5-under, too, but he bogeyed twice late to drop two shots back.

Though Åberg built up a lead, there’s plenty of big names still in the mix. Bryson DeChambeau is at 4-under on the week, which has him in line with Patrick Cantlay and Thomas Detry. Rory McIlroy, who hasn’t won a major in nearly a full decade now, is right behind them at 3-under alongside Pavon and Tony Finau.

Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler just barely made the cut to keep alive his streak dating back to 2022. He’s at 5-over, though, and is essentially out of it. Tiger Woods, on the other hand, narrowly missed the chance to play into the weekend.

Play will start just before 8:45 a.m. ET, while Åberg and DeChambeau will tee off around 3:30 p.m.
