Oakmont’s Historic Stage Sets The Scene
Nestled in the rolling hills of Pennsylvania, Oakmont Country Club is hosting its record 10th US Open Oakmont, a testament to its brutal reputation.
This par-70, 7,372-yard layout, revamped in 2023 by architect Gil Hanse, challenges players with lightning-fast greens, the infamous “Church Pew” bunker, and five-inch rough.
Past champions like Jack Nicklaus (1962) and Dustin Johnson (2016) have tamed Oakmont, but this year’s field faces a course made even tougher by recent lengthening.
“It is the ultimate test,” said Phil Mickelson, a six-time US Open runner-up.
“Oakmont does not let you relax for a second.” With Scottie Scheffler (+275 odds) and defending champion Bryson DeChambeau (+700) leading the betting, fans are buzzing about who will lift the trophy on June 15.

Betting Odds: Scheffler Leads, Sleepers Lurk
The US Open 2025 odds to win have Scottie Scheffler as the heavy favorite at +275, the shortest odds since Tiger Woods in 2009.
Here is the top 10:
| Rank | Player | Odds |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Scottie Scheffler | +275 |
| 2 | Bryson DeChambeau | +700 |
| 3 | Rory McIlroy | +1100 |
| 4 | Jon Rahm | +1200 |
| 5 | Xander Schauffele | +1400 |
| 6 | Collin Morikawa | +1600 |
| 7 | Patrick Cantlay | +2500 |
| 8 | Tony Finau | +3000 |
| 9 | Viktor Hovland | +3300 |
| 10 | Brooks Koepka | +3500 |
Scheffler’s dominance of three wins in his last four starts, including the PGA Championship, makes him the man to beat.
DeChambeau’s power suits Oakmont’s long par-4s, while McIlroy’s recent struggles raise questions.
Long shots like Keegan Bradley (+10000) and Ben Griffin (+5500) are gaining traction after strong recent finishes. Odds may change; check with bookmakers.
Expert Predictions: Who Has Got The Edge?
Analysts are split on who will master Oakmont’s challenges.
Here is a roundup of US Open predictions:
- Scottie Scheffler: His tee-to-green precision and mental toughness make him the top pick. “He is playing at a different level,” says analyst Ryan Young.
- Bryson DeChambeau: The defending champ’s driving distance is a weapon, but his irons need to be sharp. “Bryson can overpower Oakmont,” notes Jay Busbee.
- Jon Rahm: A T8 at the PGA signals a return to form. His 2021 US Open win adds confidence.
- Rory McIlroy: His Masters win keeps him in the mix, but some experts are fading him after a shaky Canadian Open.
- Sleepers: Joaquin Niemann (+4000) for his LIV Golf form, Collin Morikawa for his accuracy, and Aaron Rai for his fairway-hitting prowess.
Oakmont rewards complete games, so players who avoid big mistakes could surge.
Oakmont’s Brutal Layout
The Oakmont golf course is a beast.
Its 2023 renovation added 150 yards and expanded greens, which now run at 14-15 on the Stimpmeter, a device invented at Oakmont in 1935.
Key features include:
- Church Pew Bunker: A 12-ridged trap between holes 3 and 4.
- Thick Rough: Over 5 inches, punishing wayward shots.
- Narrow Fairways: Just 28 yards wide on average.
- Par-3 8th: Over 250 yards, one of the longest in major history.
The par-4 1st hole is a brutal opener, and the greens are among golf’s fastest.
Recent rain may soften conditions, but expect scores to climb, with a winning total likely around +2.
Oakmont’s US Open History
Oakmont’s nine prior US Opens have crowned legends.
Here is a look:
| Year | Champion | Score |
|---|---|---|
| 1927 | Tommy Armour | +13 |
| 1935 | Sam Parks Jr. | +11 |
| 1953 | Ben Hogan | -5 |
| 1962 | Jack Nicklaus | -1 |
| 1973 | Johnny Miller | -5 |
| 1983 | Larry Nelson | -4 |
| 1994 | Ernie Els | -5 |
| 2007 | Angel Cabrera | +5 |
| 2016 | Dustin Johnson | -4 |
The 2007 event, won by Cabrera at +5, was the toughest this century, with a scoring average of 75.7.
Players To Watch
Beyond the favorites, these names could make noise:
| Player | Why They’re Dangerous |

| Collin Morikawa | Pinpoint irons are ideal for Oakmont. |
| Keegan Bradley | Thrives in tough setups, strong regionally. |

| Jackson Koivun (a) | Top amateur, fearless approach. |

What Is Next At Oakmont
With Round 1 underway, expect leaderboard shifts.
Oakmont’s narrow fairways and slick greens will punish mistakes, and the forecast suggests firming conditions by Sunday.
The 2023 renovations could push the winning score higher than 2016’s -4. Are fans already buzzing about potential Sunday duels for Scheffler vs.
