NBC's opening of the U.S. Open Golf Championship today included two readings of the Pledge of Allegiance, but omitted the phrase 'under God' both times.

The program commenced with children standing in a classroom setting, as they recited the 'abbreviated' version of the Pledge, saying: 'I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, with liberty and justice for all.'"
