DeChambeau is competing, preparing for Oakmont
BRYSON DeChambeau loves to practice and compete, but the US Open champion also appreciates the limited LIV Golf schedule that gives him time to pursue other interests. DeChambeau arrived at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club for LIV Golf Virginia this week after a characteristically busy few days that included a round of golf with President Donald Trump and some short-game practice on the South Lawn of the White House. The big-hitting YouTube star then turned his attention to the 54-hole LIV event that started Friday at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club. He said the thick rough and fast greens would help prepare him for Oakmont Golf Club in Wiscosin where the US Open will be played, starting on Thursday. He will try to win his third US Open after triumphs last year at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina and in 2020 at Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck, New York. 'I think LIV afforded me the opportunity to spend more time thinking, strategising, getting my body healthy, ready for majors in a pretty unique way,' DeChambeau said. 'For me, it was a great thing. I thought there was an opportunity to do other things in life – do I want to win every single tournament I show up to? 100%.' The RTJ event is the eighth of 14 tournaments this year for the globetrotting, Saudi-funded LIV Golf League. Although PGA Tour players have more freedom to set their own schedules, they typically play more often. For top-ranked Scottie Scheffler, the US Open will be the fourth of five events in a seven-week stretch. DeChambeau hasn't competed since last month's PGA Championship, won by Scheffler. While DeChambeau was enjoying a friendly round with Trump Scheffler was finishing off his third win of the past month at the Memorial.

Golfweek's Best 2025: Top public-access golf courses in every state, ranked
Golfweek's Best 2025: Top public-access golf courses in every state, ranked Looking for the best public-access golf courses in your home state, or planning your next getaway? Golfweek's Best has you covered with our annually updated ranking of the Best Courses You Can Play list for each state, as judged by our nationwide network of raters for 2025. The hundreds of members of our course-ratings panel continually evaluate courses and rate them on 10 criteria on a points basis of 1 through 10. They also file a single, overall rating on each course. Those overall ratings are averaged to produce all our Golfweek's Best course rankings. The courses on this list allow public access in some fashion, be it standard daily green fees, through a resort or by staying at an affiliated hotel. If there's a will, there's a tee time – no membership required. (There are a handful of courses on this list that some players might consider to be traditionally private, but they do allow non-hosted, non-member guest play in some limited form, normally through a local hotel or similar arrangement.) KEY: (m) modern, built in 1960 or after; (c) classic, built before 1960. For courses with a number preceding the (m) or (c), that is where the course ranks on Golfweek's Best lists for top 200 modern and classic courses in the U.S. * indicates new or returning to the rankings Alabama's best public-access golf courses 1.
