Day one at the 2025 U.S. Open proved to be a difficult test.

Oakmont promised to be a difficult track, and despite limited wind along with rain that slowed the greens, the course was exactly that. In the first round, only 10 players shot below par, and just 19 players total were able to avoid shooting above par.

Of the field, J.J. Spaun had the best day, shooting the only bogey-free round of the tournament so far. It was the first bogey-free round at Oakmont since the first round of the 2016 U.S. Open, which was done by eventual champion Dustin Johnson.

Spaun's had two runner-up finishes this year, inlcuding at The Players, but he is still looking for his first win since the 2022 Valero Texas Open.

Elsewhere, South African Thriston Lawrence is in sole possession of second place after a strong round of 67, while Brooks Koepka, Sungjae Im, and Si Woo Kim are all tied for third. On the other hand, big names like Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler, and Bryson DeChambeau all had their share of struggles and are flirting with the cut line entering Friday.

However, there are still 54 holes to play, and the conditions should mean that anything could happen. As Round 2 arrives Friday, the challenges will continue at Oakmont.

(All times Eastern)

Round 2

1:28 p.m. — Sam Burns finished Round 2 shooting -5, making him tied for second after concluding his second day. He's one of just 12 players to ever shoot 65 or better in a round at Oakmont during the U.S. Open.

12:52 p.m. — Add Jon Rahm to the list of stars that are vocally expressing their frustrations with Oakmont.

12:03 p.m. — Sam Burns is on an absolute roll. He's up to six birdies in Round 2 vs. one bogey, shooting five-under for the day and three-under overall. Burns is tied with Lawrence for second.

12:02 p.m. — Brooks Koepka spent some time at the top of the leaderboard prior to three bogies over four holes, but with a nice shot in a par-3 6th hole, he's back to even for the tournament. 

11:47 a.m. — It's an ace for Victor Perez! He celebrates with a chest-bump after recording just the second-ever hole-in-one at a U.S. Open at Oakmont. 

11:38 a.m. — While Hovland has dropped back to -1, Tyrell Hatton moves closer to even with an eagle on Hole 12.

11:14 a.m. — It's rare to see (or hear) Scottie Scheffler get frustrated, but he let out a "Dang it!" while slamming his club. He's sitting at four-over.

10:47 a.m. — Hovland continues his upward trend in Round 2 with a birdie on Hole 1. He continues to flirt with the lead.

10:18 a.m. — Sam Burns is another player off to a great Friday. Consecutive birdies to close out the back nine move him to -2, getting under par and within reach of the top of the leaderboard. Both Hovland and Burns are four-under so far in Round 2.

9:59 a.m. — Hole 17 is treating players nicely right now. Viktor Hovland cards an eagle on a hole-out to continue his strong first half today and tie Lawrence on the leaderboard at -3. Hovland is -4 in Round 2, while a bogey from Koepka on Hole 18 dropped him to T-4. 

9:46 a.m. — Brooks Koepka connects on a nice chip-in on Hole 17 for birdie, a huge shot that moves him to three-under. He's now tied for second and within one shot of the lead after eight holes today.

9:42 a.m. — Sungjae Im is back at par after a strong Round 1, bogeying on Holes 2 and 5 to begin Day 2. He falls out of the top-5 on the leaderboard in the process.

8:45 a.m. — We had heard all week about how tough Oakmont is. Justin Thomas found that out first hand when his par attempt from a few feet out on No. 12 quickly turned into a double bogey. 

8:25 a.m. — The overgrown rough got a lot of negative publicity leading up to the U.S. Open and it ended up being cut down. Still, with a high rough and fast greens, Viktor Hovland decided he'd rather try putting from the second cut, and it worked. 

8:10 a.m. — It's barely past 8 am on the East Coast, but the action has already begun at Oakmont. Scottie opened his second day of play with a birdie on hole No. 1.

Round 1

8:05 p.m. — As the action winds down, Tony Finau saves par in wild fashion after hitting a sprinkler head and landing in the grandstands.

7:30 p.m. — Neergaard-Peterson drops another shot after bogeying 16, and he's now at -1 on the day.

7:12 p.m. — Despite his albatross, Patrick Reed is in the clubhouse at +3, largely thanks to a triple-bogey on the final hole.

7:11 p.m. — Rasmus Neergaard-Peterson had remained consistent on the back nine with five straight pars, but he bogeys 15 to drop to -2.

6:40 p.m. — Im bogeys his 17th hole, making his third bogey in the last six holes to drop to -2 for the day.

6:25 p.m. — Koepka birdies his last two holes of the day to cap off a -2 performance, putting him at tied for fifth.

6:07 p.m. — The top of the leaderboard is starting to go backwards as Burns, Rahm and Cam Young have all dropped out of the top five.

5:45 p.m. — Sam Burns' putter is hot as he has made his way up the leaderboard, now just one back of Spaun for the lead.

5:28 p.m. — Jon Rahm is making his way up the board as he completes a birdie and an eagle on back-to-back holes to get to -2.

5:19 p.m. — Im immediately bogeys his next hole, falling back into a tie for first with J.J. Spaun.

4:56 p.m. — Im drains a second-straight birdie putt and he is now in solo lead at the U.S. Open.

4:39 p.m. — Sungjae Im makes a birdie on his tenth hole to get him into a tie for the lead, joining Spaun at the top of the leaderboard.

4:27 p.m. — Patrick Reed has some trouble getting out of the rough at nine, which leads to a bogey that drops him a shot down to -1.

4:05 p.m. — Jordan Spieth now has two birdies in a row to get back to under par for the day.

3:35 p.m. — Rasmus Neergaard-Peterson eagles the fourth hole to get to -3 and into an early tie for second place.

3:00 p.m. — Sam Burns is percolating. He's at 3-under through five, placing him one stroke from the lead. Three birdies will do that for you.

2:45 p.m. — Patrick Reed makes history on the green, recording the fourth albatross in tournament history. For those keeping track, an albatross refers to a golfer finding their target on the second stroke of a par-5.

2:05 p.m. — Thriston Lawrence sits one stroke off Spaun's lead after sinking his third birdie of the back-nine.

1:35 p.m. — The afternoon session is underway. And birdies have started to flourish — Bud Cauley, Scottie Scheffler and J.T. Poston all fired off successful efforts to kick off their days.

1:15 p.m. — A tough finish for McIlroy, who saw his impressive score turn to ashes amid a flurry of back-nine bogeys. He sits at 4-over with one hole remaining in the round.

1:00 p.m. — Trailing Spaun in the rankings — only slightly — is Korean star Si Woo Kim. He's not quite faultless; he rattled a bogey home at No. 14. But at 3-under with two holes remaining, Kim has looked better than most atop Oakmont's serpent-like surface.

12:50 p.m. — Spaun ends his day with yet another par, his ninth in as many back-nine holes. What a showing for the Los Angeles native, who well walk into the clubhouse with sole possession of the lead. He also tied Andrew Landry with the best opening round score in U.S. Open history at Oakmont.

12:45 p.m.  — Just seven players are sitting at even or better so far. The sorceress is hexing the vast majority of those who have trotted onto its wicked surface.

12:30 p.m. — To contextualize Spaun's display thus far, here's a look at the greatest first-round showings in Oakmont's U.S. Open history. 

12:10 p.m. — Amateurs past and present are finding a rhythm on the daunting course; Spaniard Jose Luis Ballester put home a delicate putt form 87 yards out to record a birdie. Evan Beck followed him up with a canary of his own, dropping an inch-perfect chip to collect his first-ever U.S. Open birdie.

11:50 a.m. — Spaun's scorecard might be unspectacular in the back nine. But he's been efficient; he has seven straight pars, keeping his tally level at 4-under.

11:30 a.m. — The par-5s are causing a bit of trouble to some of the tournament's big-name performers. Defending U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau had to save a bogey on No. 12 while McIlroy whipped an effort in from distance to prevent too crooked of a number on No. 4

11:15 a.m. — Lowry is having quite the interesting day. He continues his volatile streak by sinking an eagle 2 on No. 3. He becomes the first golfer to ever accomplish such a feat.

10:45 a.m. — Spaun has continued his ascent up the leaderboard, although he's relied on a steady approach in the back half thus far. He still sits at 4-under through 13, rattling four pars to kick off his back nine.

10:15 a.m. — Not ideal from Shane Lowry. The Irishman was unable to emerge from that harrowing Poa annua bluegrass.

Fortunately for him, Lowry found a way to overcome his early toils on No. 17 and save par.

9:45 a.m. — Strange day thus far for Adam Scott, who sits at 2-under despite rattling off three bogeys.

9:15 a.m. — So far, so good for Spaun, who is down to 4-under after canning a quartet of birdies in the front nine.

8:44 a.m. — Make that two birdies in three holes for McIlroy. He and J.J. Spaun are the only players at 2-under early on, even with the conditions ideal so far. 

8:35 a.m. — Rory McIlroy is off to a hot start...

8:20 a.m. — Ludvig Aberg, among the pre-tournament favorites, started his day with back-to-back birdies before a bogey dropped him back to 1-over.
