Oakmont, PA – June 13, 2025
The 2025 U.S. Open is officially underway at the historic Oakmont Country Club, and the first round delivered a mix of stellar play, surprises, and signature U.S. Open toughness.

J.J. Spaun Sets the Pace with Bogey-Free 66

J.J. Spaun leads the field after a flawless opening round, carding a bogey-free 66 (-4) on one of golf’s toughest tests. Spaun wasted no time asserting himself, rolling in four birdies over his first eight holes and needing just 26 putts to navigate Oakmont’s notoriously fast greens.

“I kept it simple and didn’t make many mistakes,” Spaun said post-round. “That’s the key out here.”

Notable Round 1 Highlights

Brooks Koepka Closes Strong

The two-time U.S. Open winner surged late, birdieing his final two holes to post a solid 68 (-2). With his major championship experience, Koepka is once again in the hunt.

Jon Rahm Eagled the 4th

Rahm, the 2021 champion, electrified the crowd with a massive eagle on the par-5 4th hole. He sits at 2-under, just two shots off the lead.

Scottie Scheffler Stumbles

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler couldn’t get comfortable, finishing at 3-over par. Despite coming in as a favorite, Oakmont’s tough layout took its toll.

Course Conditions Prove Brutal

Oakmont lived up to its reputation. With only 10 players finishing under par, Thursday’s scoring average crept close to 5-over, confirming once again that the U.S. Open is golf’s ultimate test.

Leaderboard After Round 1

  • J.J. Spaun: -4 (66)
  • Brooks Koepka: -2 (68)
  • Jon Rahm: -2 (68)
  • Additional players tied at even par or worse

Stay tuned for Day 2 coverage as the leaderboard tightens and the cut line looms.

Bryson DeChambeau Dodges Double Penalty in Wild U.S. Open Moment at Oakmont 2025

by

Bryson DeChambeau, his caddie, and a USGA rules official discuss relief options during the first round of the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club.

The opening round of the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club proved challenging for defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, who finished with a 3-over 73 after struggling both off the tee and on the greens.

The biggest headline? A near-rules disaster on the par-5 4th hole.

After finding a fairway bunker, Bryson’s ball rolled into a spectator crosswalk, classified as ground under repair. He picked it up for relief and began lining up a drop closer to the green. But a USGA official intervened, informing him the drop had to be taken on the tee side of the crosswalk—and that once lifted, the ball had to be dropped, not replaced.

Then came the second close call: Bryson started to place the ball instead of dropping it—an automatic two-stroke penalty had he followed through. Thankfully, the official stepped in just in time.

🔹 Two penalties avoided
🔹 Just 12 yards lost
🔹 Still walked away with par

The rest of the round saw a steady front nine followed by three bogeys on the back—highlighted by a gutsy 25-foot bogey save on the 12th.

One of the more chaotic (and rule-filled) rounds of Day 1 at Oakmont.
