Oakmont was every bit the punishing test we expected, and this year’s U.S. Open lived up to its brutal reputation. Fast greens, deep rough, steady rain, and those infamous church pew bunkers made survival the name of the game. In the end, it was JJ Spaun who rose above the chaos, capturing the title with the only score under par for the week and a short game that held firm under immense pressure. His clutch tee shot on 17 will be remembered—but the 62-foot bomb he dropped on 18 was pure electricity. We break down the big names that faltered throughout the week, reminding us once again that Oakmont doesn’t play favorites. It was a classic U.S. Open: unforgiving, dramatic, and a true test of championship golf. Oakmont never disappoints.
