JJ Spaun, with just one PGA Tour victory to his name, punctuated a life-changing moment of his 14-year professional career by rolling in a 65-foot putt to edge Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre by two strokes and win the 2025 US Open.
As chasers Adam Scott, Viktor Hovland, Tyrrell Hatton, and Cameron Young unraveled, Spaun managed to steady the ship through all of the turbulence.
All week at Oakmont Country Club, J.J. Spaun wielded his trusty putter like a magic wand. It started on Thursday with the only bogey-free round (66) of the U.S. Open, and 72 hours later he closed one of the wildest Sundays in the 125 editions of this championship with an improbable, cross-country birdie putt on the 72nd green.
The 34-year-old Southern Californian, with just one PGA Tour victory to his name, punctuated the life-changing moment of his 14-year professional career by rolling in a 65-foot putt to edge Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre by two strokes.

It’s almost Sunday at the US Open and the leaderboard is packed with players who would be first time major champions.
Adam Scott is the only major champion among the top-10 on the leaderboard at Oakmont. Will the energy of youth or the experience of age prevail?
It might not involve all the marquee names people expected to start the week, yet the storylines going into Sunday’s final round of the 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club are quite compelling.
You have 54-hole leader Sam Burns, a former junior and college All-American with five PGA Tour victories, but no majors. Burns backed up his second-round, 5-under-par 65 – the third-lowest in Oakmont U.S. Open history – with a 69 on Saturday for a three-round total of 4-under 206.

The scoring on the Front 9 through 36 holes is 38.096 while the scoring on the Back 9 is 36.613. The scoring average through 36 holes is 74.709 (+4.709), which is the highest average score relative to par at the U.S.Open since 2018 (+5.04 at Shinnecock Hills through 36 holes).
When a U.S. Open is contested on a beast of a layout like Oakmont Country Club, volatility is expected along with lots of carnage.
Thursday’s opening round of the 125th edition of this championship – the 10th on this venerable western Pennsylvania cathedral – certainly had all of that, with just 10 sub-70 scores and one of the highest scoring averages (74.64) in the last 25 years.

Oakmont Country Club, known for its narrow fairways, Church Pew bunkers, and challenging layout, is the 2025 US Open venue this week and promises drama. Previously, having hosted the Championship in 2016, Oakmont provided PGA Tour professionals with one of the toughest tournaments of the season, where only four competitors broke par, three of whom were at -1.
With the rough lush and the bunkers deep, accuracy off the tee is paramount, pars are crucial, and every stroke will be a test of the players’ skill.

Since 1945, and every year since, FootJoy has been the golf shoe of choice at the professional level. That’s 80 consecutive years of the best players in the world choosing FootJoy for the ultimate combination of comfort, style and performance.
The first breakthrough was in 1927 when FootJoy sales rep, Miles Baker, convinced the captain of the U.S. Ryder Cup that the team should be wearing FootJoy golf shoes in the inaugural matches at Worcester Country Club, which they did, en route to a 7 point victory. Johnny Farrell, a member of that U.S. team, liked the shoes so much he wore them to victory in a 36-hole, one day playoff at the 1928 U.S. Open. This was the first of more than 8,000 victories by professionals wearing FJ shoes.

Echoing his performance at the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic just weeks earlier, Fox once again rose to the moment. With his Srixon ZXi Fairway Wood in hand, he delivered a pinpoint approach shot on the par-5 18th, leaving himself inside 12 feet and setting up the decisive birdie putt to claim his second PGA TOUR title.

The 38-year-old has received the top player award on the European Tour (now DP World Tour) and PGA Tour Australasia. He won the DP World Tour’s flagship event, the BMW Championship, in 2023.
This is the 125th U.S. Open Championship. The U.S. Open, which was first played in 1895, was not contested for two years (1917-18) during World War I and for four years (1942-45) during World War II.
