The 125th edition of the U.S. Open golf championship got underway on Thursday morning at Oakmont Country Club, situated just outside of Pittsburgh. This event marks the tenth occasion that Oakmont has served as host for the U.S. Open, and the course is widely expected to present one of the most demanding challenges seen in recent years.
Following the conclusion of the first round of play, J.J. Spaun topped the leaderboard by carding a round of 66, finishing 4-under par. He was among a select group of just 10 competitors who managed to post a score below par on the inaugural day of the tournament. Here we present a summary of the most significant actions and highlights from the first round of the 2025 championship.
