The tradition of the US Open finishing on Father’s Day Sunday could be in jeopardy after play was suspended due to dangerous weather.

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.

The second round of the 2025 U.S. Open got another jolt from Victor Perez.

In one of the most improbable wins in U.S. Open history, J.J. Spaun started the final round with five bogeys in the first six holes, stood four shots back with nine holes to play then came home in 32 to win at rain-laden Oakmont C.
