Ian Poulter shows how absurdly deep the U.S. Open rough is at Torrey Pines

We went over this last week when Xander Schauffele previewed the rough at Torrey Pines, which is playing host to the 2021 U.S. Open: the tall stuff will be brutal, as it is every year at the Open, and golfers usually show us on video how bad it is.

Ian Poulter has done this before at past U.S. Opens and this year is no different. He asked viewers to find his ball in the rough as he was practicing, and yeah, it’s impossible to find. When he reveals where it is and how buried it is, you know it’s going to be brutal this year if you miss greens and fairways.
