Players will start on the first and 10th tees. Each grouping will have three golfers. The top 60 and ties will play the 36-hole cut and advance to the weekend. The leading scorer after 72 holes will take home the US Open 2025. If scores are tied after the final round, a two-hole aggregate play-off will be held.

'Humbling For My Intelligence': Murray's Hilarious Anecdote About Playing Chess With Son

Last Updated: Murray opened up on playing chess with his five-year-old son and revealed a rib-tickling story of how his kid got the better of him on the 64-square board. British tennis icon Andy Murray opened up on playing chess with his five-year-old son and revealed a hilarious story of how his kid got the better of him on the 64-square mat. The three-time Grand Slam champion jested about how humbling it was for him to lose to his son, who still seeks his father's help to use the lavatory. 'It's humbling for my intelligence" 😂 Andy Murray says his five-year-old beats him at chess ♟️ — BBC Sport (@BBCSport) June 9, 2025 'My five-year-old boy has got massively into chess, which I'm really enjoying playing with him because I'm not a particularly good chess player but I've got quite an analytical mind," Murray began. 'I enjoy the game and watching him learn and playing with him. It's difficult losing to a five-year-old when in the middle of the game he's asking you to come and wipe his bum, essentially," he continued. 'He's going to the toilet in the middle of the game, and then he comes back and is beating me at chess. It's humbling that, for my intelligence," the 38-year-old said. Murray, who briefly coached Novak Djokovic after calling time on his own career, parted with the 24-time Grand Slam winner earlier in the year, but left the door open for a coaching gig in the future. 'I would do it again at some stage," the Glaswegian said. 'I don't think that will happen immediately. I wasn't planning on going into coaching as soon as I finished playing but it was a pretty unique opportunity. It was a chance to learn from one of the best athletes of all time," he said reflecting on his opportunity to coach the Serbian legend. Murray went on to highlight the learnings he takes from coaching and how to get a message across the board.. 'You also learn a lot about how to work with a team," he reflected. 'As an individual athlete, you have a team of people around you, but you're the focal point whereas when you're coaching an individual, you're working with a physio, physical trainers, agents, and you need to know how to get your message across to the player and find out what makes them tick," Murray continue. 'That was the thing I learned and something I need to work on if I want to do it again in the future," the Brit concluded. First Published: June 12, 2025, 09:09 IST

Why the Alcaraz-Sinner French Open final is among the most epic battles

Grand Slam finals carry an unmistakable aura. When a Slam final stretches into a five-setter, it signifies an enthralling contest between evenly matched rivals. Add multiple tie-breakers into the mix, and the sense of parity intensifies, turning the match into an absorbing duel between superior equals. These epic battles become historic. No fan can forget two such memorable men's tennis finals from the recent past. The longest Grand Slam final ever in the Open Era — a gruelling 5-hour, 53-minute battle between Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal at the 2012 Australian Open — remains unmatched to this day. Djokers' celebration, during which he tore off his shirt, remains etched in every tennis fan's memory. Equally unforgettable is the memory of both the players, their legs trembling, at the trophy presentation, until someone brought them chairs. The 2019 Wimbledon final between Djokovic and Roger Federer stood out for different reasons. Lasting 4 hours and 57 minutes, it became the first Slam final to feature three tie-breaks in the Open Era. The sight of Djokovic squatting on Centre Court and eating grass in triumph signalled not just victory, but also a poignant end to Federer's legendary pursuit. Sunday's showdown at Roland Garros between World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and World No 2 Carlos Alcaraz has earned its place among the greatest Slam finals. Lasting 5 hours and 29 minutes, it is the second-longest Grand Slam final in the Open Era. The chart shows the length in minutes for 122 Grand Slam Finals (data from 1991 to 2025). Each circle corresponds to a final. The higher the dots, the longer the finals. Interestingly, in recent years, matches have been relatively longer. The gripping encounter also featured three tie-break sets — only the second time in Open Era Grand Slam finals. However, the number of tie-breaks should be viewed with caution, as rules have varied across years and Grand Slams. The chart on the left shows the number of finals that featured three/two/ one/zero tie-break sets and the chart on the right shows the number of finals that featured five/four/three sets in the Open Era. What truly stood out on Sunday was Alcaraz's extraordinary comeback from being two sets down. To underscore just how rare this feat is: Sinner had only once before lost a match after winning the first two sets since 2021; that was against Djokovic at Wimbledon 2022. Indeed, in the Open Era, the number of times a player who was two sets behind and then went on to become the champion in a Grand Slam final is only eight. The table shows eight other Grand Slam finals in the Open Era in which a player lost the first two sets, but eventually won. Incredibly, the most recent occurrence before this was by Sinner himself, who fought back to win the 2024 Australian Open after trailing Daniil Medvedev by two sets. Medvedev, unfortunately, has experienced this twice — previously it was in 2022, against Nadal, in the Australian Open final. On three defining measures — a marathon encounter, multiple tie-break drama, and an unforgettable comeback — the latest Roland Garros final emphatically earns its place among the greatest championship matches ever played. The table shows the 12 finals that Jannik Sinner reached since 2024, with the winners and losers mentioned. With 38-year-old Djokovic's last Slam win happening in 2023, and Nadal and Federer now retired, tennis fans are eagerly turning their gaze towards Sinner and Alcaraz — the emerging rivals still in their 20s. Since 2024, Sinner has dominated the tour, winning 91 out of 99 matches (a 92% win rate), while Alcaraz, during the same period, has managed to win 91 out of 109 matches (a win rate relatively lower at 83%). Yet there's a twist. Since 2024, Alcaraz and Sinner have faced off five times — including three finals — and each time the Spaniard has emerged victorious. Sinner reached 12 finals in this period, winning all nine in which his opponent wasn't Alcaraz (Table 4). While few have managed to solve the Sinner puzzle, Alcaraz, despite faltering against others, has maintained a flawless record against the Italian in the last 18 months.
