Weather delay halts 2025 US Open final round at Oakmont for more than 90 minutes
The final round of the 2025 U.S. Open was halted for 90 minutes for inclement weather on Sunday, June 15, before play was resumed shortly before 5:40 p.m ET. A weather delay was in place in the afternoon at Oakmont Country Club, just outside of Pittsburgh, as golfers were on the course for the final round of the tournament. The PGA Tour said play was stopped due to "dangerous weather." Advertisement Play was suspended just after 4 p.m. ET as rain came pouring down onto the course, and puddles began to form on greens. Spectators were pulling out umbrellas as golfers were playing through the initial start of the rainfall, but it became heavier, and officials ultimately decided to blow the horn. Golfers began to leave the course once play stopped. It had been a pretty good weekend of weather for the third major of the year, as conditions have been mostly dry during play. Temperatures reached a high of around 80 degrees for the first holes, and the first moments of rain came on Friday night. However, Sunday was going to be a concerning day for weather as showers were expected. The National Weather Service reported rain showers were possible in the morning and scattered showers would take place throughout the day. Weather could still be a factor through the rest of the round as the goal is to be able to finish the tournament before nightfall. Advertisement Play was stopped with Sam Burns on top of the leaderboard at 2-under-par through seven holes. Adam Scott was in second place at 1-under-par. The two golfers are the only ones under par.

Scottie Scheffler deleted his Venmo account over unwanted activity. Here's what to do if that happens to you.
How to clean up your digital footprint and protect against online scams Much like a golf course, Venmo can bring some unexpected traps and other hazards. The popular payment app enables users to send requests and payments to Venmo accounts listed as public — a default setting that opened up a can of worms for the world's top golfer, Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler, 28, who is competing in the U.S. Open this week, said Tuesday that he deleted the app after receiving a string of unwanted financial requests and payments from strangers betting on his performance. "That's why I had to get rid of my Venmo because I was either getting paid by people or people requesting me a bunch of money when I didn't win. It wasn't a good feeling," the 16-time PGA Tour winner recently told reporters, according to CBS Sports. While he occasionally received small payments after winning a game, Scheffler said he more typically got requests from gamblers looking to cash in if he had lost. "I don't remember the most that somebody would send me," he said. "Maybe a couple bucks here or there. That didn't happen nearly as much as the requests did." Ordinary Venmo users may not attract the same attention on the app as Scheffler, but they can still benefit from knowing how to protect their privacy on the payment platform. Read on for tips on how to navigate Venmo safely. What should I do if I get an unexpected payment or request on Venmo? With the proliferation on online scams, Venmo encourages its users to play it safe. If you get a payment from a stranger, Venmo says you should not accept the transfer, but instead contact the app's support team. Likewise, payment requests from suspicious accounts, or people you don't know, should also be declined, the company says. "In some cases, you may receive a payment request from someone who appears to be a friend or relative," Venmo warns on its website. "This can be a common scam tactic, so we recommend contacting your friend or family member outside of Venmo to confirm the legitimacy of the request before taking any action." For more information on how to safely use Venmo, the company's website outlines common mobile payment scams and how to avoid them. Can everyone see my Venmo payment history? Paying your roommate for the electricity bill? Others might be able to see that transaction on Venmo, depending on your account settings. If your profile is public, which is the default setting on the app, then each of your payment transactions will appear on Venmo's main feed, making them visible to anyone online. That includes information on who you're paying, when you paid them and what you're paying them for — cue the pizza emoji. To limit the number of people who can see your transactions, you can switch your privacy settings to "Friends only" or "Private." The "Friends only" setting makes your payment transactions visible to Venmo friends only. The "Private" setting, the most restrictive of the three options, limits payment visibility to the two parties engaged in the transaction. Venmo also allows you to retroactively change your transactions to private mode which would hide your entire payment history, according to a company spokesperson. If you're paying or requesting money from someone who has different privacy setting than you, Venmo will default to whoever's setting is more restrictive. For example, if your account is private and you're making a payment to someone with a public account, the payment will automatically be private, and only visible to you and the recipient.

Ryder Cup Captain 'Disappointed' in Rory McIlroy's U.S. Open Comments
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Rory McIlroy has had quite a couple of months. In April, he became the sixth man ever to complete the career grand slam, winning the 2025 Masters. He joined Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Players, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods. McIlroy was playing so phenomenally at that point, many wondered how many majors he would go on to win. Here we are two months later and the narrative has changed drastically. After his driver was deemed nonconforming by the USGA at the PGA Championship, McIlroy opted not to speak to the media after each round. The same occurred the following week, as McIlroy posted the worst 36-hole finish of his PGA Tour career. He, understandably, did not speak last week. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 15: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland reacts to his second shot on the 10th hole during the final round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 15,... OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 15: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland reacts to his second shot on the 10th hole during the final round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 15, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) MoreFollowing his third round of the U.S. Open, he finally did address the media. He was rather blunt when asked about not speaking with the media. "It's more a frustration with you guys," McIlroy said. "I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do," he added shortly after. Paul McGinley, the winning 2014 Ryder Cup captain for Europe, was not a fan of what McIlroy had to say. "I didn't enjoy them. I don't like to see that, Rory McIlroy is better than that. Either not talking to the media or giving a press conference like that doesn't serve him fairly or rightly for the person that he is," McGinley said at the U.S. Open on Live From. "He looks fed up to me. He looks like he's had enough of everything. Whether it was the emotional release of everything that's gone on in his career, I don't know, but he's not himself." McGinley then hinted at maybe something off the course being in play. "I'm disappointed for Rory that it's come to that. Something is eating at him. He has not let us know what that is, but there's something not right." McIlroy admitted after his final round Sunday that he 'climbed his Everest' when he won the Masters. He went on to detail his mental struggles since that time, and how difficult it has been for him to remain focused. What do you think? Do you believe there is something else at play here?
