Simpson got some company in the Oakmont record books late Friday morning, however, as Victor Perez found the bottom of the cup from the tee on the 192-yard 6th hole, hitting a 7 iron just below the hole and watching as it released straight into the hole for an ace.

Victor Perez capped a nice second-day rally with a tournament highlight — the first U.S. Open ace at Oakmont since 1983. Perez hit a 7-iron on the sixth hole, a 192-yard par 3. Perez ended up shooting an even-par 70 on Friday despite an early triple bogey.

France's Victor Perez joins rare company at Oakmont becoming just the second golfer to record an ace during the U.S. Open Championship at the venue.
