Oakmont Country Club has delivered as advertised across the first two rounds of the 2025 U.S. Open leaving most of the 156-man field battered and beaten by the toughest golf course in the United States.

Sam Burns avoided the late meltdown that cost him in the first round of the U.S. Open OAKMONT, Pa. — The pounding rain arrived far too late to douse so many of the meltdowns across Oakmont on Friday in a U.

Sam Burns came into Friday knowing that he could play at Oakmont. He also knew what the course could do to him, having finished with three bogeys and one double bogey during Thursday’s opening round.
