J.J. Spaun wins 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club, capturing his first major championship. He finished at 1-under par, becoming the only player to break par for the tournament. Spaun secured the title with a dramatic 64-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole, sealing a memorable victory.
Meanwhile, Robert MacIntyre made a strong push late in the round. He nearly tied the U.S. Open comeback record but finished second at +1.
The final round was heavily impacted by weather. Heavy rain and delays disrupted play, creating difficult conditions throughout the day. Players had to adjust on the fly, as Oakmont’s course became increasingly unforgiving.
Sam Burns and Adam Scott, the overnight leaders, struggled in the worsening weather. Burns was also involved in a questionable relief ruling after encountering a soggy lie, which drew attention from fans and commentators alike.
Another standout moment came from Justin Hastings. He made history as the first Caymanian to compete in the U.S. Open, and he finished as the low amateur of the tournament.
Off the course, there was additional drama. Reports surfaced that former champion Wyndham Clark was accused of damaging lockers inside the Oakmont clubhouse.
Although the leaderboard shifted frequently on Sunday, Spaun’s late birdie proved to be the defining moment. His win marks a career milestone and a memorable chapter in U.S. Open history.
