DeChambeau Seeks Repeat at 2025 U.S. Open

The 125th U.S. Open begins at Oakmont Country Club, renowned for its challenging rough and history, drawing top golfers from both the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, who won the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst, seeks a third title and could become the first back-to-back winner since Brooks Koepka. DeChambeau, a leading figure in LIV Golf, remains optimistic about the league's future and his contract talks. Fans can win a Hershey's protein bar if he makes a hole-in-one, though Oakmont's par-3s are especially tough. Scottie Scheffler aims for his first U.S. Open victory to complete a career Grand Slam, while Rory McIlroy enters after two straight runner-up finishes. The event features a $4.3 million winner's purse and is expected to be fiercely competitive.
