U.S. Open 2025 odds, betting, lines: Scottie Scheffler is the biggest favorite in 15 years
The 2025 U.S. Open tees off Thursday at Oakmont Country Club in Plum, Pennsylvania, and Scottie Scheffler (+275 at BetMGM) is the overwhelming favorite to win. Scheffler has the shortest odds heading into a U.S. Open since Tiger Woods was a +175 favorite in 2009, according to Sports Odds History's database. Scheffler, the top-ranked player in the world, has won three of the last four tournaments he's played in, including the 2025 PGA Championship by five strokes over the field. Scheffler has been incredibly consistent as well, finishing in the top 11 in 10 of the 12 tournaments he's entered this season. Advertisement He's such a big favorite that BetMGM is even offering a proposition wager where bettors can take Scheffler (+275) or the entire field (-400) to win the tournament. Not surprisingly, Scheffler is the most-bet player by total wagers (17.8%) and total dollars wagered (31.3%) at BetMGM. Scheffler also represents the biggest liability for the sportsbook of any golfer. Bryson DeChambeau (+750) is the only other player with single-digit odds and has the second-most tickets (12.8%) and handle (16.7%), along with the second-biggest liability. Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy have the next-best odds at 12-1. McIlroy finally won his first Masters in April, but most recently missed the cut at the RBC Canadian Open this past week. He is the third-biggest liability at BetMGM. Advertisement Xander Schauffele (22-1), Collin Morikawa (25-1) and Ludvig Aberg (25-1) are the only other players with odds better than 30-1. Jordan Spieth (50-1), Brooks Koepka (66-1), Dustin Johnson (125-1) and Phil Mickelson (250-1) are a few former major winners with longer odds.

New Hampshire covered in rain, smoke as summer begins. Here's the forecast for the season
It may be summer, but the weather in New Hampshire remains gray and rainy. In fact, most of the region has seen measurable rainfall every weekend for the past 13 weeks, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) of Gray, Maine. Together with the rain, smoke from the wildfires in Canada is clouding the skies, blocking the summer sun and causing poor air quality throughout New Hampshire and Maine. After 13 weeks, you may be wondering if the rain in New Hampshire will ever end, as well as when the smoke will clear up. Here's what to know. As of right now, this coming weekend will also see rain in New Hampshire. The NWS forecasts the potential for showers on Saturday, June 14 and measurable rainfall the night of Sunday, June 15. However, neither day is expected to be a washout, and the NWS says both days will be salvageable. While it cannot be determined with certainty when it will stop raining on the weekends in New Hampshire, the NWS predicts that this pattern may be active for a while. "We're not going to be getting into a dry spell anytime soon," said Sarah Jamison of the NWS. "I can't rule out precipitation going through the end of June." Jamison said that spring and early summer are seeing more rain this year as the climate recovers from the drought last fall, with May 2025 in the top three wettest May's ever recorded in southern New Hampshire. Because rain continues to hit the ground, water continues to be fed into the precipitation system, causing more frequent rainfall. While there are stretches of dry weather between the rain, the NWS predicts that an active pattern will continue to come every few days, possibly through the entire summer.

See Farmers' Almanac summer forecast As smoke from the Canadian wildfires continues to travel down into the U.S., New Hampshire and Maine are blanketed with gray, hazy skies. The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services and the Maine Department of Environmental Protection have both issued an an air quality alert due to particle pollution, which is making the air unhealthy for sensitive groups. Both states advise that individuals limit outdoor physical activity to reduce the risk of adverse health effects, including irritated sinuses, stinging eyes, coughing, shortness of breath and even a rapid heartbeat. People who may be especially sensitive to the air pollutants include children, the elderly, those with heart disease and those with pre-existing respiratory conditions, such as asthma or bronchitis. Currently, the air quality alerts are in effect through the morning of Monday, June 9, but they may be extended as the fires continue.
