US Open Golf

The 125th US Open takes place at Oakmont County Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania this week and the 156-player field has been confirmed for the third Major of the season.

Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau will be in attendance as he aims to become the first player since Brooks Koepka in 2018 to successfully retain the trophy.

World number one Scottie Scheffler has been in blistering form over the last month, collecting the US PGA Championship among others titles, and he will fancy his chances of coming out on top.
