2025 US Open best bets: Expert picks for Oakmont
2025 US Open best bets: Expert picks for Oakmont Show Caption Hide Caption John Smoltz favors McIlroy, Scheffler over LIV Ahead of the American Century celebrity golf tournament, baseball hall of famer John Smoltz breaks down the best celebrity golfers and why he favors the PGA over LIV. The golf world is getting ready to descend upon Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania for the third major event of the 2025 season: the U.S. Open. The U.S. Open will feature a field of 156 golfers vying to take home the title. Scottie Scheffler is the overwhelming favorite to take home his first U.S. Open Trophy, but there will be plenty of others hoping to author a Cinderella story, including 17-year-old high school junior Mason Howell. This will also mark one of the few times each year that PGA Tour and LIV Golfers square off against one another. Bryson DeChambeau will look to defend his 2024 title for the start-up circuit, while many will be watching to see whether Brooks Koepka, Joaquin Niemann, or Jon Rahm can make a run at a major title. LIV GOLFERS AT 2025 US OPEN: Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka and more join field Who will win the 2025 U.S. Open? Navigating the 7,372-yard layout, five-inch rough and fast greens of Oakmont won't be easy for any golfer. Here are USA TODAY's expert picks for the tournament, with all odds coming via BetMGM. Best bets for 2025 U.S. Open Yes, you should back Scottie Scheffler (+275) Scheffler has by far the shortest odds to win the U.S. Open, but it's for a good reason. He has won three of his last four tournaments, including the PGA Championship, and has finished no worse than T-25th in any event this season. Scheffler's success is largely thanks to his strong tee-to-green game. He ranks first on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: tee to green (SG:T2G) but has also been the tour's second-best scrambler. That combination should allow him to have fewer issues than others with Oakmont's brutal rough and could ultimately deliver him his first U.S. Open title. Collin Morikawa (+2500) is another top contender to back Morikawa ranks second on the PGA Tour in driving accuracy, which should bode well for him at the U.S. Open, where landing in the rough will be especially penal. If the 28-year-old can have a strong ball-striking week, he should keep himself near the top of the leaderboard. At the very least, Morikawa is a safe bet to make the cut. He hasn't yet missed one in 11 events this year and has logged eight top-20 finishes. Joaquin Niemann (+3000) is the best LIV Golfer Some may be scared off by Niemann, who has just one top-20 finish in 21 major appearances since turning pro in 2019. That said, he has been LIV Golf's best player this season, winning four of the circuit's eight events, including the pre-U.S. Open tune-up in Virginia. Niemann has averaged 327.3 yards per drive this season, which would be good for the best in the PGA Tour ahead of Aldrich Potgieter (326.6). The Chilean's accuracy could make or break his chances of contending for his first major title, but there's little doubt he has the distance needed to shorten the course, making him a quality value pick at a discount from DeChambeau's +750 odds. Sepp Straka (+4000), Russell Henley (+6000) are top value picks Straka hasn't yet won a major but has turned into one of the PGA Tour's most consistent players. He ranks second to only Scheffler in total strokes gained (SG: Total) and ranks top-three in both strokes gained approaching the green (SG:APP) and greens in regulation (GIR) percentage. He missed the cut at the Masters and PGA Championships this year but has finished top-three in two of his last three events, including a win at the Truist Championship. Meanwhile, what Henley lacks in distance he makes up for in his tee-to-green accuracy. He may not shorten the course like some of the other bombers, but if he can play mistake-free golf, there may be a spot in the top 10 for the Official World Golf Rankings' No. 7 golfer. Looking for a mega-sleeper? Thorbjorn Olesen (+20000) could deliver Those trying to find a golfer with longer than 100-1 odds to back could consider Olesen. The Dane has never made the cut at the U.S. Open but boasts a well-rounded game (14th on tour in SG: Total) and has the third-best scoring average on the PGA Tour behind Scheffler and Rory McIlroy. Olesen has made five consecutive cuts and has posted two top-10 finishes in his last six events. He hasn't finished top 10 at a major since the 2013 Masters, but taking a flier on him to win – or at least to finish top 20 (+450) – could prove a worthwhile risk.

Xander Schauffele is a sick man when it comes to golf's toughest test. He loves the US Open
OAKMONT, Pa. (AP) — Xander Schauffele wrapped up nine holes of the most punishing U.S. Open course and was smiling. This was on a Monday, only a practice round at Oakmont. But the image illustrates why Schauffele rarely seems to suffer at the major reputed to be the toughest test in golf. He has finished out of the top 10 only once in his eight previous U.S. Open appearances. His highest score is a 75 in the third round at Brookline in 2022. He tied for 14th that week. 'Maybe I'm just sick and enjoy the challenge,' Schauffele said with another smile. 'Something about it playing really hard. I think a good attitude goes a long way. It's obviously easier said than done, hard to keep a good attitude through the entire stretch of 72 holes, practice rounds as well. I don't know. I think they're a lot of fun.' The attitude will be tested at Oakmont, the course with rough that looks like a cabbage and greens so fast it can feel like putting in a bathtub. The Stimpmeter was developed after the inventor read about Gene Sarazen hitting a putt into a bunker at Oakmont. Schauffele still hasn't figured out the winning part of it, at least not at the U.S. Open. Despite his top 10s, he has yet to seriously challenge in the final hour. This year presents a different test for the 31-year-old Californian, who broke through last year in the biggest events by winning the PGA Championship and the British Open. He is still trying to find his groove after missing two months with a rib injury that significantly slowed the start of his season. That was a serious challenge — sitting at home, resting, doing next to nothing. 'I felt like I was playing at a pretty high level. Then I got hurt,' he said. 'My expectations of what I knew I could do to where I was were different. And accepting that was tough. I think that was sort of the biggest wake-up call for me coming back.' So a U.S. Open at Oakmont — fun, he calls it — might be a good measure of where he is. Most of the 156 players, and even a few alternates, made their way out to the course on a relatively dry day that should stay that way at least until the weekend. Justin Thomas was among those who came to Oakmont a few weeks ago to get in some serious study, knowing practice rounds can be the biggest grind because they take so long. Everyone is trying to figure out what to do from the rough, where to miss, how to avoid mistakes. Dustin Johnson played nine holes, his first time back at Oakmont since he won his first major nine years ago. He played the final seven holes not knowing if the USGA was going to penalize him for his golf ball moving on the fifth green. That's some serious mental toughness. There have been a few changes, including even fewer trees. 'The course is just as hard as I remember, if not harder,' Johnson said. The USGA likes to test every part of the game, and that includes the mental side of it. Jack Nicklaus, a four-time U.S. Open champion, said he used to listen to players complain in the days leading up to the Open and figure he could rule them out. 'I hope it psyches a lot of players out,' Thomas said. 'I understand this place is hard. I don't need to read articles, or I don't need to hear horror stories. I've played it. I know it's difficult. I also have faith that if I go play well and I'm driving the ball well and I'm hitting my irons like I know I can, I'm going to have a lot of birdie opportunities.' Thomas also mentioned the need to have a good attitude. The definition is different for each player. For him, it's being committed over every shot on every hole and accepting the outcome. 'I think once I start second-guessing myself or not trusting my instincts is kind of where I get myself in trouble,' Thomas said. 'Then when I do that, I naturally am pretty pissed off if it doesn't work out. It wasn't because of the shot, it was more from the lack of commitment. That's where it starts for me generally.' With Schauffele, it can be hard to tell when he loses his cool. And he's not a big believer that anyone throwing a club is costing himself shots. Tiger Woods, who won the U.S. Open three times, was among the best at putting any anger behind him before he settled over his next shot. 'I think I look pretty level-headed when I play, but internally I might be absolutely just thrashing myself,' Schauffele said. 'I think truly having a good attitude is just sort of accepting what happened and allowing yourself to be pretty much at zero to hit the next shot.' It's not just the U.S. Open where Schauffele has shown remarkable consistency. He rallied down the stretch at Quail Hollow to make the cut, and his cut streak is at 65 tournaments going into Oakmont. That's the longest streak since Woods made 142 cuts in a row that ended in 2005. He has game, clearly. And he has the right head for the U.S. Open. 'Part of my attitude thing is we're all playing the same course, and it's going to be hard,' he said. 'You may think something's unfair, but it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. Whoever can deal with it the best is going to play well. That's the attitude I've had — look at it as a fun challenge versus feeling like you're living in a nightmare.' ___ AP golf:
