Sam Burns did what many people would deem impossible on Friday at the 2025 US Open. Burns claimed the 36-hole lead at Oakmont Country Club with a five-under 65, the best round of the tournament through two rounds. Burns holds a one-shot lead over 18-hole leader JJ Spaun, who dropped two shots after his opening-round 66.

J.J. Spaun just pocketed $4.3 million as the winner of the 2025 U.S. Open. The winner of the 2025 U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club takes home the biggest earning of the total purse of $21.

The first round of the 2025 U.S. Open lived up to the billing as Oakmont Country Club yielded only 10 rounds under par -- with an average score near 5 over par -- despite ideal conditions on Thursday.

If scores hold after the second round of the U.S. Open on Friday—and obviously they won't—the cut line is projected to claim anybody shooting worse than three over par.

The event will be back on schedule for the final day, after a weather delay suspended play in the second round on Friday and forced an early morning on Saturday to finish out the round. The third round was also pushed back from its originally scheduled start as a result, but finished on Saturday evening.

Scheffler has by far the shortest odds to win the U.S. Open, but it's for a good reason. He has won three of his last four tournaments, including the PGA Championship, and has finished no worse than T-25th in any event this season.

J.J. Spaun turned a sloppy mess of a U.S. Open at wet and nasty Oakmont into a thing of beauty at the end Sunday with two stunning shots that carried him to his first major championship. First came his driver on the 314-yard 17th hole onto the green for a birdie that gave him the lead.
