Scheffler chases back-to-back majors at US Open
World number one Scottie Scheffler plays a shot during his final practice round at Oakmont for the 125th US Open (Andrew Redington) Top-ranked Scottie Scheffler launches his bid for back-to-back major titles as the US Open gets under way on Thursday. The world's top golfers face an ultimate challenge at Oakmont, where dense rough, sloped fast greens and tricky bunkers have Scheffler among many calling it the hardest course they might ever play. Advertisement "This is probably the toughest golf course in the world right now," defending US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau said. Scheffler noted the tall rough, saying, "What's so special about this place is pretty much every time you're off the fairway it's going to be very difficult for you to get the ball to the green." Scheffler, whose nine wins last year included Paris Olympic gold, has won three of his past four starts and his matchup against iconic Oakmont is golf's version of a heavyweight showdown. It begins at 1:25 p.m. (1725 GMT) when he starts off the first tee alongside fourth-ranked American compatriot Collin Morikawa and Norway's Viktor Hovland. Advertisement After capturing last month's PGA Championship for his third major crown, Scheffler is trying to become the first man to win consecutive majors since Jordan Spieth in 2015 by taking his first US Open title. Scheffler is a heavy oddsmakers' favorite but tries to ignore such things, especially after bettors forced him to dump his Venmo account. "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," Scheffler said. Second-ranked Rory McIlroy, who won the Masters in April to complete a career Grand Slam, and DeChambeau, who won last month at LIV Golf Korea, will be among the first to test Oakmont after Indianapolis dentist and former Oakmont caddie Matt Vogt hits the opening shot off the first tee at 6:45 a.m. Advertisement Five-time major winner McIlroy, who says he has seen progress after driver struggles in the past month, begins off the 10th tee at 7:40 a.m. with playing partners Justin Rose of England and Shane Lowry of Ireland. Northern Ireland's McIlroy could become only the seventh player to win the Masters and US Open in the same year, joining Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Spieth, Arnold Palmer, Craig Wood and Ben Hogan. DeChambeau, seeking his third US Open victory in six years, goes off the first 10 at 7:29 a.m. alongside fourth-ranked US countryman Xander Schauffele, the reigning British Open champion, and Spain's Jose Luis Ballester, the reigning US Amateur champion. Phil Mickelson, who turns 55 Monday, can complete a career Grand Slam with a victory. He starts at 8:02 a.m. off the 10th tee, two groups behind McIlroy. Advertisement Mickelson, the oldest major winner at age 50 from his 2021 PGA Championship victory, is a six-time major champion and six-time US Open runner-up. A field of 156 from a record 10,202 entries will be trimmed to the low 60 and ties for the last two rounds, although thunderstorms are in the weekend forecast. js/rcw

Bryson DeChambeau 'Inspired by Scottie Scheffler,' Looks to Repeat
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. This week, the golf world's attention is zeroing in on Oakmont Country Club for one of the most anticipated events of the year, the 125th U.S. Open. Known for chewing up even the steadiest of players, this championship is golf's ultimate test. Last year, it was LIV Golf's Bryson DeChambeau who hoisted the trophy for the second time. Now, he's coming back to own the moment once again. He is especially motivated mostly after two major disappointments. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 10: Bryson DeChambeau of the United States speaks to the media during a practice round prior to the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 10, 2025 in Oakmont,... OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 10: Bryson DeChambeau of the United States speaks to the media during a practice round prior to the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 10, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) More Getty Images His first heartbreak came at Augusta when he faded away from Rory McIlroy that final Sunday. The PGA Championship, too, was no different story. DeChambeau finished at T2, but five strokes back of Scottie Scheffler. In a candid moment ahead of his U.S. Open title defense, Bryson revealed the name that's been pushing him lately. "I would say that the biggest influence career is Ben Hogan, Greg Norman and Tiger Woods," he said. "Tiger Woods pushed the boundaries on what we thought was possible with golf. As time goes on, Scottie Scheffler is an inspiration as well in terms of how well he's playing. "I want to play to that level and inspire to play to that level as well." It's not every day that a reigning U.S. Open champion tips his cap to a rival, but Scheffler's dominance has made it hard to ignore. Scheffler won the 2024 Masters at 10-under, earning his second green jacket. Then, he captured his third major title at this year's PGA Championship, running away from the field during the final round. He level of consistency is something to marvel at. Scheffler has been ranked No. 1 in the world for 107 consecutive weeks. That is the longest stretch since prime Tiger Woods. His consistency, especially under pressure, has made him the man to beat at Oakmont. More Golf: Collin Morikawa Shows Stones with Bold U.S. Open Proclamation

Artificial Intelligence helps analyze golf fans' swings at U.S. Open
Aside from watching the U.S. Open tournament itself, there's so much for fans to do at Oakmont Country Club this weekend. 'It was a Pebble Beach simulator. It was really cool,' said Matt Hillebrand of McMurray, who attended the U.S. Open practice round on Wednesday. Advertisement The Pebble Beach simulator is part of the Fan Central area in the 'Drive By Lexus' tent. Full Swing, a virtual golf company, has the simulator set up where you can hit a ball against a screen, and then technology does the rest! They also partnered with Sportsbox AI to analyze your swing. They let Channel 11's Andrew Havranek try it out. All you have to do is step up to the tee, swing, and the artificial intelligence takes over. 'We're taking a swing video of every fan that comes by, it processes it in about 15 seconds, and then what it's doing is it's converting their golf swing into 3D data, which is basically a fancy way of saying we're quantifying how much of certain movements they're doing,' said Nick Vecellio of Sportsbox AI. Advertisement Those different movements show things like pelvis rotation, chest rotation, and more. 'In two minutes, we can give these guys enough impactful data that they want to use our software and come back to see us again in the future,' Vecellio said. There is also a putting green that employees can alter to give steeper slopes and angles in the tent. Aside from these types of fan experiences, golf fans will be able to go up to the American Express tent starting Thursday to get a free radio. That will allow fans to listen to the golf broadcast while out on the course watching the golfers to get real-time updates around the course and from different groups. Advertisement Fans we spoke to on Wednesday had some tips for anyone coming out to Oakmont in the next few days. 'Leave extra time because if you leave later in the morning to get here, you're going to run into a lot of traffic,' Hillebrand said. 'So leave extra time and just enjoy the experience. Don't have too many expectations because there's a lot to see here and it's a great time.' The U.S. Open Trophy is on display for fans to take pictures with throughout the week at the Driven By Lexus tent. It will be taken away a little early on Sunday so that the winner of the U.S. Open will get their chance to hoist it. Download the FREE WPXI News app for breaking news alerts.
