On a day that didn’t produce many smiles for the world’s best, Patrick Reed certainly got the crowds at Oakmont Country Club going with a rare albatross on the par-5 fourth hole during the opening round of the US Open.

On the par-5 fourth hole, Reed recorded an albatross, also known as a double-eagle, which occurs when a player records a score of three strokes under par on a single hole. It's just the fourth albatross in U.S. Open history at Oakmont Country Club since records began being kept in 1983.

Patrick Reed started his U.S. Open with a bang, making a two on the par-5 fourth hole to launch himself into contention early in the first round.
