Louis Oosthuizen lips out a near hole-in-one

Louis Oosthuizen is currently putting together the round of the day on Saturday at the U.S. Open. He was within an inch or two from making it a really great front nine. Oothuizen’s tee shot at the Par 3 ninth hole caught the lip of the cup only to just spin out.

The lip out proved to be costly as Oosthuizen missed the birdie putt and remains even for the tournament. Oosthuizen still has the best round of the day going at 3-under through nine holes. He has, however, missed a couple of short birdie putts that have prevented him from making a serious run up the leaderboard and into contention.
