The PGA Tour heads to Oakmont Country Club this week for the season’s third major event, the 125th U.S. Open. This marks the 10th time the iconic course near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has hosted golf’s toughest test — more than any other venue in the tournament’s storied history. Since its first Open in 1927, Oakmont has built a reputation as one of the most demanding courses in the sport, famous for its lightning-fast greens, deep bunkers, and punishing rough that challenge even the best players.
Over the decades, Oakmont has witnessed some of golf’s greatest moments — from Walter Hagen’s early dominance to Ben Hogan’s precise artistry, Jack Nicklaus’ legendary performances, and Tiger Woods’ unforgettable battles. This year’s field is equally compelling.
The defending U.S. Open champion is Bryson DeChambeau, who claimed the title in 2024 at Pinehurst. This year, DeChambeau returns with hopes of tackling Oakmont’s demanding layout alongside world number one Scottie Scheffler, major champions Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth.
The U.S. Open runs from June 12 through June 15, offering four days of intense, high-stakes golf action. Whether you’re a seasoned fan or just tuning in, there are more ways than ever to watch and stream the tournament live for free.
