TOP FAVOURITES

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER

World No 1 Scheffler is the clear favourite to win this year’s edition for a reason.

He is in incredible form after making a slow start to the 2025 season, winning three of the last four events he's played in.

Scheffler hasn't finished outside the top 10 since March, so he'll surely be up there challenging at the top of the leaderboard again.

Despite not winning the US Open yet, he's finished T7, T2 and third in recent years and will want to go all the way this time.

RORY MCILROY

Masters champion McIlroy will have some bad memories come rushing back when he begins the US Open this month.

Last year, he led with five holes to play in the final round before collapsing late on to hand the title to DeChambeau.

BRYSON DE CHAMBEAU

LIV Golf star DeChambeau is the defending US Open champion and he's looking for his third win in this major.

He also came out on top in 2020, so to see him tipped as one of the favourites to do so again isn't a shock.

On top of his record in this event, he's also heading to Oakmont in great form, having finished T2 in the PGA Championship and T5 in The Masters.

His battle with McIlroy last year will certainly be in his mind as he looks to go back-to-back at the US Open.

JON RAHM

Another LIV star follows in the list of US Open favourites, with Jon Rahm hoping to bring an end to his recent woes.

Since his Masters win in 2023, he hasn't tasted major success again, but he has won this tournament before.

The Spaniard's first-ever major came in the 2021 US Open as he took home over $2million for finishing ahead of Louis Oosthuizen.

He will hope to recreate that win, but he failed to finish inside the top five at The Masters and the PGA Championship this season.

XANDER SCHAUFFELE

After winning two majors in 2024, World No 3 Xander Schauffele has struggled to reach the same heights this year following some injury issues.

He only has one top 10 finish in nine events this season but that did come at The Masters.
