U.S. Open 2025: Burns Surges To Lead In Round 2 At Oakmont.
Oakmont Country Club has lived up to its reputation during the first two rounds of its record tenth United States Open Championship. That did not deter Sam Burns, who shot a superb 65 in round two, while surging to the lead at the midway point of the championship. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 13: Sam Burns of the United States reacts after making par on the ninth ... More green during the second round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 13, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) As Oakmont continued to firm up on Friday, only three players managed to remain under par as the combination of Oakmont's greens, and a brutal USGA setup featuring rough over five inches long gave the best players in the world fits. The difficulty didn't seem to bother Sam Burns, as the world's 22nd ranked player shot a five-under par 65, the lowest round of the event so far. The brilliant play Friday by Burns has him in the lead through two rounds as only three players have managed to break par for 36 holes at Oakmont. After an opening round of +2(72), Burns had an early tee time Friday and came out firing. Playing in the morning with little wind, cloud cover, and a golf course still drying out, Burns used magnificent ball striking which led to 6 birdies made from inside 10 feet. If not for a brutal finish Thursday, where Burns saw himself one shot out of the lead before playing the final four holes in 5-over par, Burns could have himself with a sizeable lead. 'I played really well yesterday other than the finishing holes. So I think today was just kind of getting mentally ready to come out and try to put a good round together,' he said. Round one leader, JJ Spaun sits one shot back of Burns at -2 heading into the weekend. Playing in his first U.S. Open, Spaun shot a bogey-free 66 to take a one-shot lead heading into Friday. Spaun carded a +2(72) on Friday and sits one-shot behind Burns at two under par heading into the moving day on Saturday. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 13: J.J. Spaun of the United States hits a chip shot on the 17th hole ... More during the second round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 13, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) Rounding out the group of players still under par after 36 holes at Oakmont is Viktor Hovland. Hovland rode two hole-outs from over 50 feet to fuel a second round 68 to get him into red figures at -1 for the tournament. He started his round on number 10 by making a putt of over 50-feet from the collar for birdie and also made a chip-in eagle on the drivable par-4 17th hole. If not for a double bogey on the second hole, Hovland could be even further up the leaderboard. Talking after the round, Hovland discussed how exhausting a U.S. Open at Oakmont can be. 'Definitely tired, exhausted because you're just focusing so much on every single shot,' he said. 'I'm very pleased with two under par, but also I know that I was 4 under at some point. So it's like very pleased, but also 'Man, that could have been a little lower.' But we're in a really nice spot after two days, so I'm just kind of happy.' OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 13: Viktor Hovland of Norway hits an approach shot on the 10th hole ... More during the second round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 13, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) Adam Scott, playing in his 96th consecutive major and third U.S. Open at Oakmont, shot a second consecutive even par 70 to sit three shots back of Burns at even par. Joining him is one of the hottest players in the world currently, Ben Griffin. Griffin, who had given up on professional golf years ago and was working in finance until a friend talked him into giving golf another try, shot a +1(71) Friday and also finds himself just three shots back at even par. As heavy rains came at the end of Friday and play was suspended, a few groups will be finishing the second round on Saturday morning. Currently, there are 34 players within seven shots of Burns, including world number one Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler was visual frustrated during Friday's round, one that saw him make an uncharacteristic five bogeys for the round. Scheffler, who is considered the best ball-striker in the world, really struggled off the tee for a second straight day and found himself playing from the penal rough more often than he is used to. Even with ball-striking not up to our expectation of Scheffler, he still managed to scratch out a +1(71) for the round and is at +4 for the tournament and still not out of the conversation heading into the weekend. Rory McIlroy also displayed a lot of frustration, at one point breaking a tee marker with his club, but did manage to birdie two of his final four holes to make it to the weekend. He sits nine shots behind Burns at +6 after shooting a 72 in round two. McIlroy again declined a media request after his round, making this six straight major championship rounds where McIlroy has declined speaking with the media. One of the favorites who will not be around for the weekend is defending U.S. Open champion, Bryson DeChambeau. The long hitting DeChambeau, who came into the week seemingly ready to defend his title, had all kinds of trouble with Oakmont's narrow fairways and punishing rough, finishing +10 and over the cut line. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 13: Bryson DeChambeau of the United States hits a chip shot on the 15th ... More hole during the second round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 13, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) Other notable players to miss the cut include: Ludvig Aberg, Shane Lowry, Tommy Fleetwood, Wyndham Clark, Cameron Smith, Patrick Cantlay, Joaquin Niemann, Phil Mickelson and 2016 U.S. Open champion at Oakmont, Dustin Johnson. One player who did make the cut, but was not happy about his play was Jon Rahm. The LIV Golf star shot a 75, leaving him in the same spot as Scheffler at +4 for the tournament and seven shots back of the lead. Rahm, who hit the ball brilliantly, struggled on the difficult greens of Oakmont and took 35 putts for the round. Afterwards, Rahm was asked about the difficulty of Oakmont. 'Honestly, too annoyed and too mad right now to think about any perspective,' he said. 'Very frustrated. Very few rounds of golf I played in my life where I think I hit good putts and they didn't sniff the hole. So it's frustrating.' With more rain expected Saturday, a softening Oakmont may provide an easier test for the remaining players that made the cut. Whether or not it will play easier is yet to be seen, but with many players within striking distance of the leader Burns, the U.S. Open could be setting up for a dramatic weekend of championship golf.

Tyrese Haliburton Explains How Pacers Stopped Shai Gilgeous-Alexander In Game 3 Win
Tyrese Haliburton Explains How Pacers Stopped Shai Gilgeous-Alexander In Game 3 Win originally appeared on Fadeaway World. The Indiana Pacers pulled off a resilient victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder to get their first NBA Finals win in Indiana after 25 years. In Game 3 of the NBA Finals at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse, they won the game 116-107. They completed a 20-9 run from when the game was tied at 98-98 with a little over seven minutes left on the clock. Advertisement Tyrese Haliburton fell one rebound short of a 22-point triple-double in Game 3. Following the win, Haliburton spoke to Jorge Sedano of ESPN and reflected on their performance in the game. The reporter asked him how they locked down Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in the game. 'Trying to make it as tough as you can. He's such a tough cover, trying to show him multiple bodies, trying to show help, doing the best we can.' Following this, he went on the post-game show with the NBA TV crew and spoke about the Pacers' defensive struggles as well, which addressed how they learned from Gilgeous-Alexander. 'I thought we just did a great job of showing hands, showing bodies. First half, we were rough, but I thought we did a great job of just adjusting as the game went on. The way that they play, with Shai getting downhill all the time, you really got to show gaps, you really got to present yourself be in to out. If we're spread out and give him that space, he's the best in the world at taking advantage of those double gaps, so we've got to do a great job of just corralling, staying in.' Advertisement Haliburton then pointed out young players who did well in defending the MVP. 'Andrew Nembhard was great on him today, I thought Ben Sheppard's minutes were great on him today, but I thought we just did a great job collectively of being in and out. Now we gave up a couple of Lu Dort swing-swing threes, guys made some shots from the outside, but I think that's got to be the emphasis when you guard these guys. You've got to be in to out; if you're spread out, that's what they want. They want double gaps so they can drive, get fouls, all those things, and get downhill, so we've got to do a great job of presenting ourselves.' Shai Gilgeous-Alexander seemed to have an off-night today. The league MVP scored below 30 points for the first time since Game 3 of the Timberwolves series, ending a four-game streak. He finished the game with 24 points and 8 rebounds, scoring 45% from the field (9 of 20) and 33.33% from three-point range (1 of 3). More than their offense, the Pacers' defense in the clutch moments won them this game. Myles Turner, Pascal Siakam, and Obi Toppin pulled off some crucial stops in the final stretch that ensured the Pacers took their biggest lead in the last three minutes of the game. It seemed like everything was falling into place for the Pacers to take Game 3. In addition to Gilgeous-Alexander's relative struggles, Jalen Williams missed some important free throws down the stretch. His 7 of 11 shooting from the free-throw line will be the only asterisk on what could've been a brilliant offensive outing for Williams. He finished the game with 26 points for the Thunder. Advertisement The X-factors for the Pacers were Bennedict Mathurin and T.J. McConnell off the bench. Mathurin scored 27 points to lead all scorers for the Pacers; meanwhile, McConnell recorded five steals to constantly disrupt the Thunder's offensive schemes. The Pacers are now only two wins away from their first NBA championship. If they continue playing like this, they are destined to get that Larry O'Brien Trophy this season.
