U.S. Open qualifying 2025: 7 big golf names trying to make it to Oakmont
Welcome back to "Golf's Longest Day."
June 2 marks the day when hundreds of golfers hoping to qualify for the 2025 U.S. Open have to play 36 holes at various courses around the country. Some of the qualifiers might be regular Joes or athletes from other sports who happen to be good enough at golf that they can try to get into the Open (hence why it's called an "open" in the first place).

But there are also the pros who haven't made it, so they need to go through the local qualifiers like everyone else.
That's the list we have here as they all compete to be a part of the event in Oakmont that starts in over a week.
Let's take a look:
Max Homa
He's at Kinsale Golf and Fitness Club in Ohio to try and get in.
Matt Kuchar
Same with him -- he'll be teeing off at Kinsale as well.
Rickie Fowler
Good news: he qualified for the British Open thanks to his performance at The Memorial, but he'll need a strong performance at Kinsale to get into the U.S. version.
Webb Simpson
That's right, a past Open champion needs to get in at Duke University Golf Club to play.
Blades Brown
The teenage golf sensation will try to get in at Emerald Dunes in West Palm Beach.
Zach Johnson
The vet will give it a shot at Piedmont in Atlanta.
Mark Leishman
He'll be in Rockville, Maryland at Woodmont to attempt to qualify.
