No.1 Scheffler, Four-over, Says Don't Count Him Out at US Open
- Scottie Scheffler played the first two rounds of the 2025 US Open at Oakmont Golf Club on June 12-13, holding a score of 4-over par and tied for 25th place.
- Scheffler's struggles followed his recent form with three wins in four events including the 2024 Memorial Tournament, but Oakmont's challenging greens and course conditions affected his performance.
- He admitted to making silly mistakes, hitting only 6 of 14 fairways and 7 of 18 greens in regulation, while praising his above-average putting despite mental toughness testing him throughout play.
- Scheffler said, "You've got to do your best to stay under the hole" and noted staying patient as key, while Meredith Scheffler encouraged him by saying, "I’m still going to love you, you’re still going to be the same person."
- Despite frustration and sitting seven strokes behind leader J.J. Spaun, Scheffler remained confident about making the cut and continuing to contend in his eighth US Open appearance.
