US Open Golf TV Coverage 2012: Essential Guide to Weekend TV Info

The 2012 U.S. Open is now in the final rounds, and the rest of the tournament will provide thrilling action. 

Here is how to catch the next two rounds, as noted by PGA.com.

Round 3

Where: Olympic Club, San Francisco, Calif.

Watch: NBC, 4-10 p.m. ET

Round 4

Where: Olympic Club, San Francisco, Calif.

Watch: NBC, 4-10 p.m. ET 

The old pairings are done and every golfer who finished at nine-over par or worse has gone home. The players have been placed into new groups, and here are the tee times you need to know for Round 3, via ESPN.com. 

Tiger Woods, Jim Furyk, 6:05 p.m. ET

Woods and Furyk are tied for the lead at one-under par. They have both managed to deal with the difficult course in San Francisco extremely well. 

Both players have won the U.S. Open before. Woods has won the event three times, most recently in 2008.

Furyk’s only major win of his career came at this tournament in 2003.

Both players have experience and are playing excellent golf. Now that they will be pushing each other, it is likely that one of these two will win it all.

John Peterson, David Toms, 5:55 p.m. ET

Toms is the other golfer tied for the lead after the first two rounds. Peterson has held his own as well, finishing his first 36 holes at one-over par.

Toms is an experienced golfer who was one of the best in the world for most of the 2000s. He won the PGA Championship in 2001 but has struggled with injuries in recent years.

Now, the 45-year-old looks healthy and dangerous. He poses a serious threat to win the tournament.

Peterson does not have the same experience as the three leaders, but he certainly has talent. He is 23 years old and won the NCAA Championship last year.

Raphael Jacquelin, Beau Hossler, 5:05 p.m.

Next to Tiger Woods, Beau Hossler has been the biggest story at the U.S. Open.

The 17-year-old amateur has done remarkably well and finished his first two rounds at three-over par. Jacquelin posted the same score.

Hossler really turned heads on the first day, finishing even through his first 18 holes.

This is a frustratingly difficult course, and Hossler, in his second U.S. Open, is showing the maturity and composure of a golfer far beyond his age. Hossler almost certainly will not win the event, but he is a definitely a name to remember going forward.
