SAN DIEGO, Calif. (Reuters) - Dustin Johnson may have missed the cut at the last two majors but the world number one said on Wednesday he still likes his chances at this week's U.S. Open so long as he can control his driving at Torrey Pines.

The U.S. Open prides itself as being the toughest test in golf and this week should live up that billing given the thick rough that lines both the narrow fairways and green complexes at the par-71 layout.
