Justin Thomas has had a rough go at it during this year's U.S. Open. Oakmont Country Club has really tested him, that's for sure.

He entered Friday's second round with a 6-over score from Thursday. He notched one double bogey and five bogeys during the first round.

Friday proved to be not much better for Thomas, especially in his first nine holes. Where the disaster really struck, though, is on Hole 12 (his fourth of the day) when it took Thomas four putts to finish out the hole.

Thomas's first putt wasn't shown on the broadcast, but it was a long putt that came up short. His second putt for par lipped out of the hole. The same thing happened on his third putt. Finally, Thomas took some more time on the fourth putt and sunk the ball in. Phew.

This was hard to watch.

At the time, this hole putt Thomas at nine-over for the tournament. He will have to record a strong final nine holes to even have a chance of getting inside the cut for the weekend. As of Friday morning, the projected cut was set to 4-over.

Thomas went on to par Hole 13 and birdie Hole 14 for a little redemption from the disastrous 12th hole.
