US Open 2025 Live: Second round scores, leaderboard updates, tee times and highlights from Oakmont
US Open 2025 Live: Second round leaderboard and updates from golf's third major of the season at famed Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania.
Welcome to live second round updates from the 2025 US Open at Oakmont.
Sam Burns made the big move of the day with a stunning 5-under 65.
To put that round in perspective, it was some nine shots better than the field average on day two.
The six-time PGA Tour winner vaulted up to 3-under par to assume a narrow one-shot lead over 18-hole leader JJ Spaun, who carded a 72.
Burns, who finished runner-up to Ryan Fox at the RBC Canadian Open last weekend, was a 66/1 tip from GolfMagic Editor Andy Roberts at the start of the week.
Viktor Hovland was another player to make a big push during Friday's second round.
Hovland carded a solid 68 to move to 1-under par.
Burns, Spaun and Hovland are the only three players in the red thru 36 holes.
Adam Scott and Ben Griffin make up the top five on level par.
1 | Sam Burns | -4 | 65 |
2 | JJ Spaun | -3 | 72 |
3 | Viktor Hovland | -1 | 68 |
4 | Adam Scott | Par | 70 |
4 | Ben Griffin | Par | 71 |

8 | Brooks Koepka | +2 | 74 |
23 | Scottie Scheffler | +4 | 71 |
23 | Jon Rahm | +4 | 75 |
45 | Rory McIlroy | +6 | 72 |
Elsewhere, World No.1 Scottie Scheffler failed to fire with a 71 and he looks on from 4-over par.
That is safe for the weekend at least.
Scheffler headed straight to the range after his round and looked visibly frustrated with the state of his game as he ranted in front of his coach and caddie.
Rounds took over 5 hours 30 minutes in the second round, and that frustrated a lot of fans.
Rory McIlroy narrowly made it through to the weekend after making birdie on the final hole for a 72.
McIlroy is nine shots off the pace though on 6-over par.
He lost his cool not once but twice in the second round.
McIlroy tomahawked his club on 12 and then smashed a tee box marker on 17.
Defending champion Bryson DeChambeau failed to progress to the weekend.
He slumped to a 77 to finish well down the field on 10-over par.
DeChambeau was one of a number of surprising names to miss the cut.

First bogey of the tournament for JJ Spaun
Spaun -3 (3)
JJ Spaun makes his first mistake on his 21st hole of the US Open.
The American was forced to chip from the back of the third green from an iffy lie and cannot find the back of the cup with a downhill, sliding 15-footer.
18:50
Birdie start for Xander
Schauffele +1, DeChambeau +4, Ballester +6 (1*)
Schauffele converts and 11-foot birdie putt at the 1st to get back to 1-over.
And he's got a decent look at birdie at the second.
As does Bryson...
18:46
Double for Rory
Lowry +9, McIlroy +6, Rose +7 (1)
After all that, McIlroy eventually taps in for a double bogey.
What a sloppy start.
18:42
Shocking start from Rory McIlroy
Lowry +9, McIlroy +4, Rose +7 (1*)
Rory McIlroy finds the fairway bunker with his tee shot and somehow doesn't manage to find the fairway as he attempts to get his ball back into position on the fairway.
He lashes wildly at the ball and that thing is not stopping.
It eventually settles in the rough at the back of the green...
18:41
Steady start from our leader
Spaun -4 (2)
JJ Spaun begins with two pars.
18:38
Untidy start from Bryson DeChambeau
B. DeChambeau +4 (1)
DeChambeau does not get the start he wanted.
The American found the intermediate rough at the 10th with his tee shot then put his approach into the right bunker.
He splashes out to 11 feet and misses on the high side.
18:33
Scottie Scheffler will play the weekend
Hovland -1, Morikawa +4, Scheffler +4 (F)
Viktor Hovland saves par on the last to ensure he stays under par for the tournament.
Lovely stuff from the Norwegian today and, in truth, his round could've been so much better.
World No.1 Scottie Scheffler cards a 71 and will stick around for the weekend.
Collin Morikawa is also safely through.
18:27
Rory McIlroy almost ready to go
Rory McIlroy, Shane Lowry and Justin Rose are ready to tee off...
18:26
Burns posts 65
Burns -3 (65)
When Dustin Johnson won the 2016 US Open at Oakmont, he recorded 11 birdies across four rounds.
Sam Burns has recorded the same number through 36 holes.
That 65 today really was superb. He's right in the mix.
18:18
Rahm finishes with a bogey
Rahm +4 (75), Spieth +5 (75), Johnson +10 (75)
Jon Rahm had it going. Then he didn't.
The Spaniard concludes a frustrating day with a bogey. He's currently sharing 41st place.
He'll be around for the weekend, though. Jordan Spieth should be too.
DJ will be going home early.
17:56
Bogey bogey finish for Koepka
Koepka +2 (F)
Disappointing finish for Koepka.
He bogeys the last two holes for a round of 4-over 74.
It leaves the two-time US Open champion down at 2-over par.
By no means out of it though.

17:53
Scheffler birdie
Scheffler +3 (16*)
Here comes Scottie!
Well, kinda...
He rolls home a birdie from eight feet under the hole at the par-4 7th.
It move Scheffler back to level for the round and to 3-over for the tournament.
That's seven back, but he's most certainly not out of this yet.
Providing no hiccups on the final two holes, Scheffler will comfortably make it into the weekend.

Birdie for Scheffler
Scheffler +4 (13*)
Scheffler gets up and down for birdie on the par-5 4th.

Burns to 3 under
Burns -3 (13*)
My 66/1 tip Burns is flying!
He's just two-putted from about 90 feet for an incredible sixth birdie of the round.
Burns into a tie for second on 3-under.

Hatton chip-in eagle
Hatton +2 (12)
It's a chip-in eagle for England's Hatton on the par-5 12th.
Even a rare smile, too.
Hatton to 2-over par and right bang in the mix for a first major title.
Anything around level par by the end of play today will be on the leaderboard heading into the weekend.
GIVE 'EM A 3! 🦅

Bogey-double for Morikawa
Morikawa +3 (12)
Morikawa was moving along nicely at level par a moment ago - but he's just gone bogey-double at 2 and 3 to fall back into the pack on 3-over par.
That's still very safe for the weekend but Morikawa won't want to leak too much oil coming home.

16:17
Birdie for Rahm
Rahm +3 (12)
Rahm fires a stunning long iron in to kick-in distance for birdie on the par-5 12th.
It's the first birdie of his day though.
Rahm is 4-over for the round.
Not out of it by any means at 3-over.
Oakmont is showing its teeth.
