2024 U.S. Open leaderboard: Bryson DeChambeau wins second major after grueling battle with Rory McIlroy

Dechambeau won his second u.s. open in one of the most dramatic major finishes in years.

It was pure entertainment Sunday at Pinehurst No. 2, so it was only appropriate that the greatest showman in golf ultimately prevailed. Bryson DeChambeau would not have wanted it any differently as he scratched and clawed his way to a second U.S. Open title sealing his one-stroke victory over a charging Rory McIlroy with a dramatic par save on the 72nd hole.

DeChambeau's triumph in the 2024 U.S. Open -- the 1,000th event hosted by the USGA -- pulled him alongside the likes of Walter Hagen, Lee Trevino and Brooks Koepka with two U.S. Open victories and solidifies the 30-year-old American as one of the best active players in the world. It was also a crowning achievement for what has been a successful major season following a runner-up finish at the PGA Championship and T6 at the Masters over the last two months.

Putting this tournament in a stranglehold late Saturday, DeChambeau entered the final round in Pinehurst, North Carolina, with a three-shot lead. He arrived at the first tee to chants of "U-S-A, U-S-A" and took a long gander at the trophy knowing it could possibly come home with him.

Five hours later, DeChambeau stood underneath a drooping tree branch on the 18th hole with his ball nestled near a root. He had to decide how to proceed with his second shot and realized there was no good choice to make. Ultimately, his ball found its way into a bunker 55 yards from the hole. DeChambeau somehow managed to wedge out to just 4 feet, sending a jolt of electricity into the Pinehurst crowd and all but clinching his second national championship in five years.

"That will probably be the highlight of my life," said DeChambeau, who finished at 6 under. "I still can't believe it. It's unbelievable."

Despite entering with that three-shot margin, a stress-free stroll to the winner's circle never came to fruition. DeChambeau struggled off the tee as he put a new driver head in the bag after flattening the face of his old one during his warmup. Missing three of his first five fairways when pulling the driver, he went the other way as McIlroy made his move.

In the group ahead, McIlroy treaded water early before making his presence known around the turn by converting four birdies over a five-hole stretch to snatch the lead from DeChambeau's grasp. McIlroy moved to 8 under when he made birdie on the short par-4 13th, jumping ahead two shots on DeChambeau, who dropped a shot on No. 12 after carding his first birdie of the day on the par-5 10th. It was a five-stroke swing from where the pair entered the final round.

DeChambeau halved his deficit with a birdie on the 13th and pulled even with McIlroy when the Northern Irishman made his first bogey of the back nine on the tricky par-3 15th. The big-hitting right hander found the surface himself but needed three putts from 25 feet and dropped another shot that set off a chain of strange putting over the last hour of the championship.

"I felt like I was hitting the driver pretty well today, it just wasn't starting exactly where I wanted it to," DeChambeau said. "Ultimately, on 13, I knew I needed to make birdie there to give myself a chance because Rory was going on a heater."

McIlroy missed from 2 feet, 6 inches on the 16th, returning to a 6-under tie with DeChambeau as only a few holes remained. They remained knotted until the par-4 18th when McIlroy pitched his third shot to just inside 4 feet. However, just as he did two holes earlier, McIlroy missed a makable putt in agonizing fashion.

"[McIlroy] slipped up a couple on the way coming in, and I just kept staying the course, focused on trying to hit as many fairways as I could -- even though I didn't, I was not great today with that -- I got out of trouble really well," DeChambeau explained. "And then, man, I can't believe that up and down. That was probably the best shot of my life."

This opened the door for DeChambeau, who eventually found a way to walk through it despite his making his 72nd hole of the tournament more difficult than it needed to be.

Leaning into his stardom, DeChambeau never relented as he made sure to express to the fans and his team how he felt throughout this championship. Barking after his tee shots, chatting with crowds, slapping hands with fans between holes and walking after laced approaches, the 2024 national champion wore his heart on his sleeve all week. 

It was reciprocated, embraced and celebrated by the Pinehurst patrons as DeChambeau paraded the trophy around the 18th fairway allowing fans to grab a piece of what he believed they accomplished together.

"I just can't thank you guys enough for all the support this week," he said of the fan support. "You guys have meant the world to me. You are the best fans in the world, and I cannot thank you enough. What a group of people."

2024 U.S. Open leaderboard breakdown

2. Rory McIlroy (-5): How does McIlroy possibly recover from this (latest) major heartbreak? He was cruising through the front nine and hit the nitros around the turn with four birdies from Nos. 9-13 to reach 8 under. McIlroy opened up a two-stroke lead with five holes to play, but poor decision making off the tee on No. 15 and some hard-to-watch putting on the 16th and 18th prolonged his decade-long major drought. McIlroy had made all 496 of his putts inside 3 feet this season before his miss on the par-4 16th, according to  Justin Ray .

T3. Patrick Cantlay, Tony Finau (-4): A couple players who have been somewhat disappointing in majors over recent years put together great weeks. Finau shot himself out of this tournament with a triple bogey on Saturday, but he made some noise playing his last 14 holes in 5 under. Meanwhile, Cantlay -- even without his best stuff -- hovered and hovered making this two-man sprint a three-horse race for most of the day. Too many mistakes on his card proved to be his undoing especially the pair of back-nine blunders. "I played well," Cantlay said. "Looking forward to having more opportunities. This is exactly why I play. It was good to be in contention. Obviously I would have liked to get the job done. Just a bit short this time."

5. Matthieu Pavon (-3) 6. Hideki Matsuyama (-2) T7. Xander Schauffele, Russell Henley (-1) T9. Sam Burns, Davis Thompson, Corey Conners (E)

T12. Ludvig Åberg, Sergio Garcia (+1):  Åberg, the 36-hole leader, turned into a different golfer over the weekend as the precision and accuracy which led him to the top of the leaderboard abandoned him ever so slightly. He carded four bogeys and an ugly triple bogey in his final round to fall on the wrong side of even par, but his week as a whole was not lost. In just his third major championship, the young Swede contended for the second time and added valuable experience to his belt.

"I guess the thing is it doesn't really get harder than this, and it's quite nice to know that -- what's needed to perform on this level, on this difficult level in terms of the golf course," Åberg said. "Although I'm experiencing these things for the first time, I'm still enjoying it, learning from them and obviously wanting to do well."

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is just like us at golf, except a whole lot better | Oller

The No. 1 golfer in the world looked like the rest of us Saturday at the Memorial Tournament . For one hole. 

When Scottie Scheffler duck-hooked his tee shot at No. 9 into a tree, over a chain link fence and into the woods, many of the shocked spectators at Muirfield Village Golf Club shared the same thought: “He looks like me.”

When Scheffler re-tee'd and hit his penalty shot into the right rough, you could almost hear the crowd cackle: “Feels familiar.”

And when Scheffler chopped out of the deep rough, his golf ball running through the fairway into more rough, amateur hackers everywhere nodded in agreement: “Been there, done that.” 

Finally, Scheffler found the green, 14 feet from the pin. He two-putted for a triple-bogey 7. Many of us would have 3-putted for an 8, but you get the idea. 

What differentiates golf from most other sports is that the separation between the pros and us feels both tantalizingly close and incredibly far. Those who play the game for a living occasionally hit clunkers and sometimes fail to get out of the sand. We can relate.

So when Scheffler yanked his tee shot at No. 9, well, welcome to the club, bub. He also fired a bunker shot over the green and into the water at No. 5, but the ninth was the real eye-opener.

We don’t think that way with other sports. No one watches LeBron James shoot an airball and boasts, “I can guard him.” And only a fool sees Shohei Ohtani strike out and brags “I would have hit that pitch.” 

Ah, but PGA Tour players always get the last laugh. Sure, they hit stray shots and miss 4-footers, but mostly their level of expertise is hard to fathom.

The average amateur high-handicapper is amazed at the skill of a scratch golfer when the two are paired together at a public course; that scratch player cannot believe how well the club pro hits it around; few club pros ever get a sniff of making it on the lower-level pro tours.

These guys are really, really good

Those mini-tour guys can only dream of competing on the Korn Ferry Tour, which ranks right below the PGA Tour. The majority of Korn Ferry players never qualify for the PGA Tour. A PGA Tour “journeyman” would clean an amateur’s clock, every time, but then struggles to compete against the top 10 players in the world.

Those top 10 are the cream of the crop, but even among them, there is clear separation. And his name is Scheffler.

That’s right, the same guy who pulled his drive at No. 9 into New Albany is so much better than anyone else at the moment, and it’s not even close.

Adam Hadwin, who entering Sunday’s final round is in a three-way tie for second, four shots behind Scheffler, marveled at Scheffler’s game. 

“He’s as solid as they come,” Hadwin said. “He’s the No. 1 player in the world for a reason. He’s far and above the No. 1 player, I believe, especially after watching today.”

Hadwin trailed Scheffler by three shots through eight holes but had to feel he had a chance when the triple bogey at No. 9 dropped the 27-year-old Texan back into a tie at 8-under par.

“Obviously, a couple holes there where some things didn’t go his way,” Hadwin said. “But the way he started and the way he – the sound that he hits it with and the ball flight and the shape of the shots – I don’t expect him to lose this golf tournament. One of us is going to have to make a run tomorrow.”

Scheffler, who declined to be interviewed, except by Golf Channel and the Associated Press, proved his mental makeup at No. 10. A blowup hole like No. 9 sometimes derails an entire round, but he bounced back with a birdie at No. 10, then birdied 12 and 15 before finishing with a bogey at 18.

“It was a slight pull, nothing drastic,” Scheffler said to Golf Channel of his drive at the ninth, adding he was proud of the way he rebounded on the back nine.

His career is rallying, too. Scheffler turned pro in 2018 but did not join the PGA Tour until 2020. It took him a year to get up to speed, but since 2021, his game has gone into overdrive. In 123 starts he has 10 wins and 54 top-10s. Four of the wins have come during the past three months.

Such is Scheffler’s dominance that he is favored to win every time he tees it up. Golf has not seen this kind of mastery of the sport since Tiger Woods. 

But, please, tap the brakes on comparing the current world’s best to the best ever. Through his first 123 starts, Woods won 33 times and had 79 top-10s. Truly incredible stuff. So amazing that when compared to Tiger, Scottie really does look like the rest of us.

2024 US Open highlights: Bryson DeChambeau survives at Pinehurst to win second career major

For the second time in five years, Bryson DeChambeau is the winner of the U.S. Open.

DeChambeau battled back and forth throughout the afternoon with Rory McIlroy to win his second career major title, this one played at Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina.

DeChambeau shot a 1-over par final round Sunday to finish the tournament at 6-under – one stroke better than McIlroy. This also marks the second major title won by an active LIV Golf member, joining Brooks Koepka's victory at the 2023 PGA Championship.

"I haven’t really let it sink in yet," DeChambeau said during the post-tournament interview with NBC, before he gestured to his support team. "Tonight I want all of you guys, somehow, to touch this trophy, because I want you to experience what this means and what you all mean to me."

McIlroy missed two putts within five feet in the final three holes, including a bogey on No. 18, offering DeChambeau an opening to take the title. DeChambeau, though, struggled to find fairways throughout the afternoon and was forced to make tough shots in scramble situations. None was more impressive than the work he did on the final hole, needing to punch a shot over a tree root and under an overhanging branch.

DeChambeau, 30, won the 2020 U.S. Open at Winged Foot, which was played with limited spectators because of COVID-19 pandemic restrictions.

"This will be the highlight of my life," DeChambeau said Sunday during the NBC interview. "I still can’t believe it."

This also becomes yet another devastating major finish for McIlroy, 35, whose last major title was at the 2014 PGA Championship, and who is stuck at four major championship victories.

Here's how the final round of the U.S. Open unfolded Sunday at Pinehurst:

Final hole proves tricky for both McIlroy and DeChambeau

Both Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau entered the final hole of the U.S. Open tied at 6-under par. And, as he did all day, it took an epic up-and-down for DeChambeau to save par and – eventually – win the tournament.

McIlroy’s tee shot sailed well left into the tall grass and his lie was complicated further as it sat behind a shrub. His second caught a lot of the grass, but it landed safely short of the green. He chipped onto the green to set up a very makeable putt within four feet, a putt that he didn’t hit with enough speed, causing it to rim out. He settled for bogey.

DeChambeau, meanwhile, hit an even worse tee shot, also well left of the fairway. His lie was in front of a root and under an overhanging branch. He punched the ball through and it rolled into a greenside bunker. His third shot was masterful, pinning the ball to within four feet. He sunk the putt to save par and win the tournament. McIlroy, whose putter had been his strength all day long, missed two putts within five feet in the final three holes.

U.S. Open playoff format

If two or more players are tied at the end of 72 holes, the U.S. Open will go to a playoff.

Until 2018, the winner was determined by an 18-hole playoff round the day after the tournament's scheduled conclusion. Since then, the USGA has opted for a two-hole aggregate playoff format. If two or more players remain tied after the two additional holes, the outcome would be decided by a sudden death playoff.

McIlroy, DeChambeau record bogeys after short misses

Bryson DeChambeau and Rory McIlroy have each hit several difficult shots Sunday. With the U.S. Open title on the line, they each missed some of their easiest.

Needing to sink a four-foot putt to save par on the par-3 No. 15, DeChambeau had his attempt roll around the cup, forcing his first three-putt of his U.S. Open, and his third bogey of the day. That momentarily moved him out of the co-lead with Rory McIlroy, who needed to sink a similarly short putt to convert par on No. 16.

McIlroy's was just two-and-a-half feet, but it rolled around the left side of the cup, leading to his bogey. Both players remained in a co-lead at 6-under.

McIlroy finds wire grass on par-3 15th

Once again, we are tied.

Rory McIlroy's line on his tee shot on the par-3 No. 15 was excellent; it was just hit with the wrong club. McIlroy's shot bounced on the green and then rolled off into a little valley, stopping just shy of wire grass. That complicated his second shot, and he was unable to save par on a 31-foot putt. Though it was just his second bogey of the day, McIlroy moved into a co-lead with Bryson DeChambeau, who converted par on No. 14 to stay at 7-under.

Bryson birdies No. 13, moves to within one

On the hole following his second bogey of the day, Bryson DeChambeau responded with a clean tee shot on No. 13, setting himself up for a makable eagle try that would've instantly erased the two-stroke lead Rory McIlroy had just built.

DeChambeau's putt, however, didn't have the pace it needed and came to a stop just short of the pin, though the read was pure. His birdie moved him to 7-under par, one stroke shy of McIlroy.

Rory surging late, takes two-stroke lead

All day long, Bryson DeChambeau has been rather aggressive off the tee and his mishit shots have forced him to scramble to stay in the lead. On the 12th, it finally caught up to him. DeChambeau was forced to lay up after he landed in the tall grass wide of the fairway. That set up a number of difficult shots that culminated with his second bogey of the day.

Not only did he drop out of the co-lead, but Rory McIlroy also continued the heater he is on, recording his fourth birdie in his past five holes. His birdie on No. 13 was his second in a row and moved him to 8-under par, and 4-under for the round.

And just like that, the co-lead is back on

If this is any indication for what we're in for the rest of the way, the golf will be good.

Rory McIlroy recorded his third birdie in his past four holes, the latest on the par-4 No. 12, to reclaim a co-lead with Bryson DeChambeau at 7-under par. And, as he has done all day Sunday, it was McIlroy's putter that was the highlight. He calmly and confidently drained a 22-foot birdie putt — two holes after he sunk a 27-footer for birdie on No. 10.

Both McIlroy and DeChambeau are three strokes ahead of the next closest player, Patrick Cantlay.

And just like that, the co-lead is gone

Bryson DeChambeau, per the NBC broadcast, heard from the gallery as he headed to the tee box at No. 10 about Rory McIlroy's consecutive birdies to move into a co-lead.

DeChambeau – who entered Sunday with a combined score of 5-under on the back-nine through the first three rounds (best in the field) – recorded his first birdie of his final round as soon as he made the turn.

Again, DeChambeau relied on precise shot-making with his short game to place a pitch shot to within five feet of the pin. He confidently flushed the putt to move to 7-under par and the solo lead.

McIlroy, meanwhile, left his approach shot on the par-4 11th well to the left of the pin, leaving him with a par save. He is in second place at 6-under, with Patrick Cantlay in third at 5-under.

McIlroy makes it consecutive birdies to claim co-lead

We have our first tie atop the leaderboard in the final round.

After making the turn, Rory McIlroy recorded his second consecutive birdie to move to 6-under par and a tie with Bryson DeChambeau. McIlroy's birdie came on the par-5 No. 10, on an excellent read on a curving, 27-foot putt. That followed McIlroy's birdie on the par-3 ninth, whose tee shot he landed within 15 feet.

Not to be outdone on No. 10, McIlroy's playing partner, Patrick Cantlay, sunk his own lengthy putt for birdie to move to 5-under par, and stay within one stroke of the lead.

Competition heating up as final group makes the turn

Perhaps Bryson DeChambeau is aware of the leaderboard and saw that Rory McIlroy birdied No. 9 to get to within one stroke. Perhaps he just knows what’s at stake.

Either way, DeChambeau – as he has much of his final round Sunday – had to piece together some remarkable shots to scramble. His tee shot at the eighth sailed well right of the fairway and into the tree line. His second was blasted through the pine straw, though it settled below a ridge on the back side of the green, a very difficult location.

DeChambeau’s third shot was well played and left him with a makeable, 12-foot putt to save par. DeChambeau was fired up and fist-pumped toward the crowd.

Still, even as he holds a one-stroke lead, DeChambeau did not record a single birdie on the front-nine.

Neal Shipley edges Luke Clanton for low amateur

Following up on a strong showing at Augusta, Neal Shipley claimed low amateur honors at the U.S. Open by two strokes over Luke Clanton.

Shipley battled Clanton head-to-head on Sunday, only the second time in the past 40 years that two amateurs have been paired in the same group for a final round of the U.S. Open.

With Shipley up by a shot going into the final hole, Clanton missed the fairway off the tee, but somehow managed to hit his approach shot to five feet. After Shipley converted a routine par to finish the tournament at 6-over, Clanton just missed his birdie putt to tie, then missed a comebacker and had to settle for bogey.

Shipley, who played collegiately at James Madison and as a postgraduate at Ohio State, was also the low amateur at the Masters – a feat accomplished by a select few in golf history, including Jack Nicklaus and Phil Mickelson.

Cantlay gets a birdie, within two of lead

Patrick Cantlay very nearly birdied the par-3 No. 6 as he tried to close the lead, but his putt attempt just missed. He would go on to capitalize on the next hole. Cantlay recorded his first birdie of the day, on the seventh, to move into 4-under par and a tie for second place with Rory McIlroy.

They are both chasing Bryson DeChambeau who uncorked an absolute bomb of a drive on No. 7 that cleared a bunker and traveled 341 yards. It left him just 88 yards to the pin, and an excellent chance to build his lead.

DeChambeau drops first stroke of the day

What appeared to be inevitable through the first three holes took place at No. 4.

Bryson DeChambeau recorded his first bogey of the day after a failed up-and-down attempt just rimmed out. DeChambeau had to scramble to set himself up with a very difficult par save. He read the putt quite well, and it appeared to be on line, except that it curved around the cup and sloped away.

The good news for DeChambeau was that Rory McIlroy, who was within striking distance, bogeyed the par-5 fifth to drop to 4-under par.

The bad news for DeChambeau is that his tough start continued on No. 5; his tee shot found thick rough to the right of the fairway and his second shot sailed into a greenside bunker off to the left.

Bryson pars first three through uneven start

Bryson DeChambeau came into the final round at Pinehurst with a three-stroke lead; it's currently down to two after Rory McIlroy (-5) birdied No. 1, but the more concerning thing is that DeChambeau's play to open the final round has been rather uneven.

DeChambeau has seen his driver on No. 2 find the brush on the right side of the fairway, his tee shot on No. 1 land in a divot on the fairway and his putt on No. 3 end up well short. Still, DeChambeau converted par on all three of those holes to stay at 7-under par on the tournament and in the lead.

McIlroy, after birdying his first, converted three straight pars to remain at 5-under.

Leaders tee off with US Open title on the line

Starting the day with a three-shot advantage, Bryson DeChambeau has begun his final round at Pinehurst.

The 2020 U.S. Open champion finds himself in uncharted territory as he has never in his career held the lead entering the final round of a major. He'll be paired with Matthieu Pavon, who's looking to become the first Frenchman to win a major since 1904.

The penultimate group has Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland, the 2014 U.S. Open champion and the runner-up last year, matched with American Patrick Cantlay.

McIlroy immediately birdied the opening hole to cut DeChambeau's lead to two strokes.

Rory McIlroy not happy having 'eureka moment' revealed on TV

As Rory McIlroy played the 13th hole of the 124th U.S. Open at Pinehurst Resort & Country Club’s No. 2 Course on Saturday, NBC Sports analyst Brad Faxon shared an insight into McIlroy’s game this week that was telling.

Faxon told the story of McIlroy turning to Sean O’Flaherty, his agent, during a flight Sunday evening following the Memorial Tournament and boasting, "Sean, I just figured it out."

But when interviewer Kira Dixon, working on-site for Sky Golf this week, told McIlroy about what Faxon had shared on national TV and asked him to elaborate on what she called his "eureka moment," McIlroy was none too pleased.

"OK?" he said, eyebrows arching. "Umm, it may be true. I don’t know if I want to disclose it right now. I’m not sure why Fax is giving away sort of all my secrets."

Faxon and McIlroy have a unique relationship among players and announcers given that Faxon serves as his putting coach, too.

Hole to watch on Sunday: No. 13

If there's some Sunday afternoon drama at this year's U.S. Open, a potential turning point could be on Pinehurst's short par-4 13th hole.

The USGA has moved the tees up for today's final round, so the hole measures just 316 yards from the tee markers to a very accessible pin placement.

With a slight breeze at their backs, golfers will be tempted to drive the green and give themselves a possible putt for eagle. Daniel Berger did just that, becoming Sunday's first to record an eagle when he hit his drive to within 12 feet of the hole and nailed the putt.

Can anyone go really low in US Open's final round?

Roughly half the field of 74 golfers to make the 36-hole cut have begun their final rounds, and Pinehurst isn't showing a whole lot of mercy. Only 21 players shot rounds under par 70 in Saturday's third round, led by Collin Morikawa's 66 and DeChambeau's 67.

So far on Sunday (as of 11:15 a.m. ET), only eight players are under par for their rounds. Seonghyeon Kim has the best round of the day so far -- a 2-under 68.

The lowest round of the week came on Thursday, when Patrick Cantlay and Rory McIlroy opened with 5-under 65s. Both of those players remain in striking distance, starting the day just three shots behind leader Bryson DeChambeau.

What's the greatest comeback in US Open history?

The greatest 54-hole deficit ever overcome to win a U.S. Open happened in 1960, when Arnold Palmer stormed from seven shots back to win at Cherry Hills Country Club outside Denver. Palmer birdied six of his first seven holes on his way to a 6-under 65 and a two-stroke victory over Jack Nicklaus.

Unless someone can somehow top Palmer, this year's U.S. Open champion will be one of the 11 golfers who begin today's final round at even par or better. In fact, in nine of the last 10 U.S. Opens, the winner has come from one of the top two spots entering the final round.

Sunday's weather forecast for Pinehurst

As it's been all week, the weather forecast for Sunday's final round of the U.S. Open will be for partly sunny skies with hot and humid conditions and a high temperature around 90. Winds will be out of the east at 7 mph, with gusts up to 11 mph.

Bryson DeChambeau on a major roll

While he hasn't won a major tournament yet this year, Bryson DeChambeau has arguably played better than anyone else has in the three majors to date. He finished tied for sixth in the Masters and runner-up in the PGA Championship before leading the field through 54 holes at the U.S. Open.

And he's been remarkably consistent in doing so. Saturday's round of 3-under 67 was DeChambeau's seventh consecutive round of 69 or lower in major championship play.  If he can do it again today, he will tie the all-time record.  Rickie Fowler (8 in row during 2014) and Greg Norman (8, 1993) currently share that record. 

2024 US Open purse

The U.S. Open had the largest purse of the four men’s major championships in 2023, and that amount has gone up in 2024 .

Mike Whan, the CEO of the United States Golf Association, announced Wednesday the purse for the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 will be $21.5 million, a $1.5 million increase from last year. In addition, the winner will take home $4.3 million, up from $4 million in 2023.

The winner of the first U.S. Open in 1895 took home $150.

In addition, every player will make at least $10,000, as players who miss the cut will pocket that amount.

At the Masters, the purse was $20 million with $3.6 going to the winner, Scottie Scheffler . The PGA Championship had a record purse of $18.5 million, with Xander Schauffele taking home $3.33 million .

Spotlight on Pinehurst No. 2

The Donald Ross-designed Pinehurst No. 2 is no ordinary U.S. Open test, and many of the shots and decisions required will be entirely different than those typically employed by tour professionals. The layout is ranked by Golfweek’s Best as the No. 1 public-access course in North Carolina, the No. 3 resort course in the U.S. and the No. 18 Classic course in the U.S.

It’s not just the chipping –  or putting – onto No. 2’s notoriously domed greens. As we've seen this week, Open contestants have been forced to deal with acres of sandy scrub, where luck holds great influence on outcome. Additional wiregrass was planted in the sandscapes just off the fairways for this U.S. Open, adding even more intrigue as any ball bounds off the firm but ample fairways.

– Jason Lusk, Golfweek

Another 'frustrating day' for Scottie Scheffler

Moving day didn’t mean much for Scottie Scheffler, who stayed in nearly the same position after posting a 71. The Texan is in an uncharacteristic tie for 42nd at 6 over for the tournament.

"The game of golf is a mental torture chamber at times, especially the U.S. Open," the reigning Masters champion said. "Another frustrating day. Today was a day where I thought I played a lot better than my score."

Scheffler barely made it to the weekend and he hasn’t improved on his position since then, losing more than 5 strokes on the greens this week.

"I’m having a lot of trouble reading these greens. I had a lot of putts today where I felt like I hit it really good. I looked up and they were not going the way I thought they were going to go," he said.

– Tim Schmitt, Golfweek

Matthieu Pavon hoping to make his mark

Matthieu Pavon was even with leader Bryson DeChambeau after 10 holes and slipped a bit down the stretch, but still finds himself in a tie for second at 4 under with Rory McIlroy and Patrick Cantlay, and will be part of the final pairing.

So if he does win, what will Pavon want Americans to know about him?

"Nothing special. I just love golf. That’s the thing. I’m just so happy to compete here in America. It has been a remarkable journey for me. I just love so much competing here, and this is what I like people to know about me. I’m a pretty regular guy, and it’s just awesome to be here," he said. "It’s so much different. The golf courses here feels like − playing the signatures so far, it feels like we play majors every week.

"This golf course, there is nothing even close on the European Tour. Nothing which comes even close. This is really different. I’m not really used to hitting it in the rough and not being capable to go to the green."

Leader Bryson DeChambeau deals with hip issue

Coming to the 10th tee Saturday, Bryson DeChambeau was tied with Matthieu Pavon at 6 under, when his hip started to tighten. Per the rules, the 2020 U.S. Open champ called for physio help and after a session that was caught by overhead cameras, he came back to boom a pair of his best drives and subsequently took command of the tournament.

By day’s end, the session seemed a turning point as the SMU product stretched out to a three-stroke lead, and he’ll now enter Sunday with a second major title well within his grasp.

As for the magic session, DeChambeau said it was fairly routine, and even insisted some renovations to his home could have contributed to the tightness.

"It was tougher to get through on a couple shots. It’s okay. I’ve had it for a long time now. It’s just something that popped up," he said. "I’ve been playing a lot of good golf lately, and working on my house, trying to get my house finished, so I haven’t really had time to rest like I want to. The two weeks I had off after PGA, I was really grinding and focusing on some stuff there. I wasn’t really able to rest. I’ve just been pushing myself a little bit, pushing the horse a bit. Consequently, that’s going to happen.

"But I’ve got a great team around me to help fix some stuff up."

DeChambeau goes from the spotlight back to LIV with hopes of golf becoming whole

PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) — Bryson DeChambeau acted as though he didn’t want this U.S. Open to end.

He watched his name being engraved on the silver trophy for the second time. He filled it with grains of sand from the bunker where he produced the most memorable shot on the 72nd hole of a U.S. Open since Tiger Woods made his putt at Torrey Pines to force a playoff.

And then he tried to share it with thousands of fans whom he entertained over four days at Pinehurst No. 2, wanting them to touch it and try to experience the joy he felt. Deep into the North Carolina night, he was still signing autographs.

The entertainment never stopped. He made a cameo when Johnson Wagner of Golf Channel was trying to replicate the shot, with DeChambeau doing the commentary and then letting Wagner hoist the trophy after hitting it close.

And now he takes his talents to Tennessee for the LIV Golf event that can be seen this weekend on The CW Network.

The last big stage of the year for him is next month at Royal Troon for the British Open. A week after that, four Americans will be going to Le Golf National outside Paris for the Olympics. DeChambeau will not be one of them .

Even in the shine of a magnificent victory, DeChambeau winning the U.S. Open for the second time was a reminder of the great divide in golf and how little the best players compete against each other.

“If I’m to be quite frank, I hope we can figure things out quickly,” DeChambeau said. “I hope this can bridge the gap between a divided game.”

Brooks Koepka was the first LIV Golf player to win a major at the PGA Championship last year, and along with his runner-up finish at the Masters, it was enough for him to be a logical choice as a captain’s pick for the Ryder Cup.

The PGA Tour, which has suspended anyone defecting to LIV, does not operate the Ryder Cup. It does own the Presidents Cup, and DeChambeau won’t be at Royal Montreal, either.

“All I want to do is entertain and do my best for the game of golf, execute and provide some awesome entertainment for the fans. From at least what I can tell, that’s what the fans want, and they deserve that,” DeChambeau said without a hint of animosity in his voice.

“You can say what’s happened in the past, ‘You were part of the reason,’” he said.

That gets overlooked at times, and Scottie Scheffler mentioned as much in March when he said the splintering in golf came from the player who took the Saudi money to join LIV.

DeChambeau was among the first, and his name was on the antitrust lawsuit filed against the PGA Tour that was dismissed last year when the PGA Tour and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia — which pays for LIV — agreed to try to strike a commercial deal .

Those negotiations are ongoing, though there is no indication LIV is going away. One of the biggest hurdles is how to reunite players who took the Saudi money with those who didn’t. And that assumes LIV players even want to come back.

There is less friction two years after LIV launched. But there are reminders, such as now, that who’s here today will be gone for a month, and then for the rest of the year.

“Let bygones be bygones and go figure it out,” DeChambeau said. “Let’s figure out this amazing game that creates so much positivity back to where it belongs.”

DeChambeau has been a beast in the majors — a tie for sixth at the Masters, runner-up by one shot to Xander Schauffele in the PGA Championship , an emotional win over the putter-challenged Rory McIlroy in the U.S. Open . DeChambeau and Schauffele are the only players with top 10s in all three majors.

The four Americans from the top 15 in the world who qualified for the Olympics are Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, Schauffele, Wyndham Clark and Collin Morikawa.

The Olympics uses the Official World Golf Ranking to determine the 60-man field, and the OWGR does not recognize LIV Golf because of its closed shop (the same 54 players all year competing over 54 holes) and its simultaneous team play.

The OWGR has not figured out how to measure such a league with two dozen open tours around the world, and LIV hasn’t offered a solution on its end.

This was DeChambeau’s choice when he joined LIV in 2022. He has played only one tournament outside the majors and LIV events since then — the Saudi International — while compiling five top 10s in the nine majors he has played.

And so it’s on to Nashville, to London, to the British Open and to Spain, all available on The CW, none with the energy that majors or even signature events like the Memorial and Bay Hill provide.

Beyond whatever LIV events he plays, DeChambeau has been connecting with overwhelming success through his YouTube channel.

“It keeps me in that mind frame of I’m an entertainer,” he said. “Leveraging and allowing me to utilize that platform has opened up a whole new aspect to professional golf where I think it’s been a little underutilized. There can be some positive growth in the game of golf with those interactions. It makes for some cool moments.”

The entire U.S. Open felt like a YouTube moment for him. And now he has a few stops before bringing the show to Scotland at Royal Troon when golf feels whole again.

How much money every player made from the 2024 U.S. Open’s record-setting purse

Bryson DeChambeau is heading home with a hefty winner's check.

Like all the major championships, the 2024 U.S. Open purse has increased significantly over the years, and it made another jump this year.

Thanks to LIV and the introduction of Signature Events on the PGA Tour, purses have risen astronomically across the board in pro golf. But the major championships have their own history of keeping up with the Joneses.

Just three years ago, in 2021 , the U.S Open purse was set at $12.5 million — the biggest prize pot of all four majors. Two years ago, the 2022 U.S. Open purse increased to $17.5 million — a $5 million increase. And last year, the 2023 U.S. Open purse jumped yet again to a whopping total of $20 million, an increase of $2.5 million from the previous year. (The Players Championship remains the richest purse in golf at a total of $25 million.)

This year, the 2024 U.S. Open purse increased again to a total of $21.5 million — an increase of $1.5 million. If you’re keeping track at home, the math is pretty eye-popping: In just three years, the U.S. Open purse has increased by $9 million — that’s 72 percent!

That means there’s also a seriously nice increase in the winner’s cut too. This year’s U.S. Open champion will surpass the payout received by 2023 champion Wyndham Clark by $700,000, with a $4.3 million total payday — the largest ever for a major champion. The runner-up will receive a cool $2.322 million, third place will get $1.445 million, and fourth place will clear seven figures too, with a payout of $1.013 million.

Even the players who  missed the cut  receive a payout of $10,000 each. So how much did the rest of the players in the field come away with this year? You can find a complete list of the 2024 U.S. Open payouts for each player below.
