Where to watch U.S. Open golf: TV channel, live stream, start times, schedule for 2025 major championship

Golf’s ultimate gauntlet is back, as the world’s top players gear up for the 125th edition of the US Open — where par is precious and mistakes come with a price tag.

This year, the spotlight swings back to an old stomping ground: Oakmont Country Club. No stranger to high-stakes showdowns, Oakmont is teeing it up for a record tenth time as US Open host. Throw in three PGA Championships and a pair of US Women’s Opens, and it’s clear this place doesn’t just make history — it collects it.

Renowned for chewing up scorecards and spitting out dreams, Oakmont has built a fearsome reputation as one of the most brutal courses in the country. It’s no surprise, then, that red numbers are rarer than a calm breeze on Sunday afternoon.

The best winning score to par in a US Open here? Just 5 under. On the flip side, Angel Cabrera clinched the title in 2007 with a gritty 5 over — a performance that looked more like a survival mission than a victory lap.

Even Cabrera’s battle-hardened win wasn’t the toughest climb. Back in the early days, Oakmont really bared its teeth. The champions in 1928 and 1935 limped across the finish line at 11 over and 13 over par, respectively.

We at The Sporting News can't wait for the action to begin at Oakmont Country Club, and we're the best place to keep tabs on all the competitors, schedules and TV details at the U.S. Open golf: 2025 edition.

Which players are competing at the U.S. Open golf?

The stakes are sky-high as the US Open rolls back into town, and the field is stacked with big names looking to leave their mark. World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is on a serious heater, riding a wave of five straight top-10 finishes.

He snagged back-to-back titles just last month, including the PGA Championship, the season’s most recent Major. Still, even with his game firing on all cylinders, the flatstick remains his bugaboo—putting continues to be his one major stumbling block.

Defending champ Bryson DeChambeau knows a thing or two about taming the beast that is the US Open—he’s done it twice. But aside from those shining moments, his record’s been more miss than hit. In 10 starts, he’s failed to crack the top 14 on eight occasions, proving that lightning hasn’t struck often outside those rare wins.

Then there’s Rory McIlroy, the world number two and the very definition of feast or famine at this tournament. He’s either gone big or gone home—literally. In his last 10 appearances, he’s packed his bags early three times, but when he does stick around, he’s been a real force. Seven top-10s, including back-to-back runner-up finishes the last two years, show he’s no stranger to the business end of the leaderboard.

As for the course itself, it’s no cakewalk. The last time the US Open was held here in 2016, Dustin Johnson stole the show with a cool four-under-par performance, cruising to victory by three shots. That week, he was all business, leaving the field in the dust.
