Thriston Lawrence, a 28-year-old South African golfer, turned a potential setback into a confidence boost during the first round of the US Open at Oakmont. A double bogey at the par-four ninth hole could have derailed his game, but instead, it reminded him that he was still among the top 10 on the leaderboard. This mindset shift propelled him to make birdies at the 10th, 12th, and 17th holes, ultimately shooting a three-under 67 and taking second place. Lawrence attributed his success to his solid driving and ability to adapt to new courses. Despite facing logistical issues and visa troubles, Lawrence remains committed to the European circuit and is grateful for the support of his team, including his girlfriend, caddie, and physio. For now, he's content with traveling and making the most of his AirBNB stays.
