The US Open first round featured record lows, two holes-in-one and a charging Rory McIlroy as the tournament returned to Los Angeles after a 75-year absence.

Californians Rickie Fowler and Xander Schauffele lead on eight under after recording the US Open’s first 62s.

Former champions Dustin Johnson and McIlroy led the chase but bogeyed their last holes to end six and five under on a day of unusually low scoring.

Frenchman Mathieu Pavon and American Sam Burns both aced the 15th.

They were the 49th and 50th holes-in-one at the championship, which was last played in the city in 1948 and is making its first visit to exclusive Los Angeles Country Club.

American Wyndham Clark birdied the last to post a 64 and join Johnson at six under while Brian Harman is level with McIlroy after a 65.

Scottie Scheffler and Bryson DeChambeau add more star power to a stacked leaderboard, both five shots adrift, while a frustrated Jon Rahm shot a 69.
