The season’s third major is almost upon us and could be a classic.
Oakmont Country Club hosts the U.S. Open for the 10th time and the several of the game’s best have won the national championship there: Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, Johnny Miller, Ernie Els and Dustin Johnson, to name a few. Eight of the nine Oakmont Open champions are multiple major winners.
Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are chasing multiple majors this season, though they arrive at Oakmont going in different directions. Scheffler won the Memorial two weeks ago, having won the PGA Championship two weeks prior to that. McIlroy finished far back at Quail Hollow and is coming in off a stunning missed cut at the RBC Canadian Open, where he was fighting his driver.
An iffy driver is not something to take to Oakmont, where thick rough, fescue-filled ditches and deep bunkers await wayward shots. And then there are the greens, which are lightning-quick every day for member play and will be no different for the major.
Final qualifying was held last Monday with 47 players getting into the field after a 36-hole day, and some of the amateur stories to watch will be a 17-year-old from Georgia and a dentist from Indiana.
Bryson DeChambeau is the defending champion and has had a stellar major campaign in 2025 with a T5 at the Masters and T2 at the PGA.
As of Sunday afternoon, six spots in the field remained via the top 60 off the World Ranking (to be determined after the RBC Canadian Open) and/or the winner in Canada if that player has won on the PGA Tour since last year's U.S. Open. Remaining spots will be filled off the alternate list.
