US Open Golf 2025: Complete schedule, prize money, when and where to watch
In total, 156 golfers are taking part in the US Open at the Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania.
The US Open kicked off under partly cloudy skies at the Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania on Thursday, June 12. Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau is eyeing a strong start this year. While World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is the tournament favourite.
Considered one of the toughest major championship venues in the sport, Oakmont is witnessing some of the best golfers from around the world taking on the brutal US Open challenge. Previously crowned players, including Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus and Johnny Miller, are also part of the US Open.
A total of 156 players are taking part in the US Open, which includes heavyweights from the PGA Tour like Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, as well as the reigning Masters champion, Xander Schauffele. Among other players to watch out for are Brooks Koepka, Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm from LIV Golf.
US Open 2025: Complete schedule
The US Open is taking place at the Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, from June 12 to June 15. The early-morning tee off was scheduled at 6:45 am ET.
Amateur Matt Vogt, a former Oakmont caddie, had the honour to hit the opening tee shot of the US Open 2025 event from the par-four first hole. Currently working as a full-time dentist, Vogt qualified for the tournament last week.
Oakmont, a quintessential US Open venue, is expected to serve as a brutal test for all the players to showcase their skills and resilience.
US Open 2025: Prize money
This time, the USGA has kept the prize amount for the US Open at $21.5 million, which is similar to the 2024 championship, according to ESPN.
The amount makes the US Open the most lucrative purse. Earlier, the Masters' prize pool was increased to $21 million in April, while the PGA Championship was at $19 million.
Last year, Bryson DeChambeau bagged $4.3 million at Pinehurst No. 2. The champion this year at the Oakmont Country Club will be receiving the same amount.
