The 2025 U.S. Open tees off Thursday, when defending champion Bryson DeChambeau will attempt to do what’s only been done once in the last 35 years. Brooks Koepka (2017-18) is the only back-to-back U.S. Open champion since 1989, but DeChambeau has proven he has what it takes to compete with the world’s best players. He secured a T-5 finish at the Masters in April and recorded a T-2 finish at the PGA Championship in May. The U.S. Open 2025 will be held at Oakmont Country Club. DeChambeau is going off at +700 to repeat, according to the latest 2025 U.S. Open odds. Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1-ranked player in the world, is the +280 favorite on the PGA odds board, followed by DeChambeau, Rory McIlroy (+1100), Jon Rahm (+1200), and Xander Schauffele (+2200). Before making any 2025 U.S. Open picks, you need to see the 2025 U.S. Open predictions and best bets from golf insider Sia Nejad.
Nejad specializes in betting and DFS in golf, among other sports. He’s had incredible success in the outright and first-round leader markets and in betting head-to-head matchups. He also has been solid with his head-to-head matchups since the 2023 Charles Schwab Challenge, going 52-37-5 and returning 11.67 units over that span. That’s a $1,167 profit for $100 bettors since May 2023.
Nejad also nailed Wyndham Clark, a +7500 longshot, as the outright winner at the Wells Fargo Championship 2023. That year, SportsLine debuted “The Early Wedge,” and in the first three months of the show, he hit two first-round leaders and three outright winners. Anyone who has followed its sports betting picks could have seen massive returns on betting sites and for anyone taking advantage of the latest FanDuel promo code, DraftKings promo code and Fanatics Sportsbook promo code, just to name a few.
Now, Nejad has turned his attention to the 2025 U.S. Open field and locked in his best bets, top 2025 U.S. Open sleeper picks and favorites to avoid for anyone deciding how to bet on the U.S. Open. See who they are at SportsLine.
Top 2025 U.S. Open expert picks
One surprise: Nejad is fading Rory McIlroy, even though he is the newest grand slam champion and is a two-time PGA Championship winner. McIlroy has already racked up three victories and five top 10 finishes this season, but he’s struggled in recent weeks leading up to this year’s third major.
The 36-year-old recorded a T-47 finish at the PGA Championship in May before missing the cut at last week’s RBC Canadian Open. McIlroy enters the 2025 U.S. Open ranked 170th in driving accuracy (51.13%), which doesn’t bode well at a course like Oakmont, where the rough is expected to be at least five inches long. “I don’t expect him to suddenly recapture his focus at what will be the most difficult test of 2025,” Nejad told SportsLine. See who to back here.
How to make 2025 U.S. Open picks, bets
Nejad has locked in his 2025 U.S. Open best bets, including a double-digit longshot who has been crushing in strokes gained. Anyone who backs him could hit it big. You can only see the picks at SportsLine.
So, which players should you target for the U.S. Open, and which golfer could bring a huge payday of more than 10-1? Check out the 2025 U.S. Open odds below, then visit SportsLine to see Sia Nejad’s top picks for the 2025 U.S. Open, all from the expert who has returned $1,167 for $100 bettors.

Roman Anthony collects first RBI in whirlwind MLB debut
BOSTON — As Roman Anthony waited in the Triple-A Worcester clubhouse ahead of a four-hour bus ride to Lehigh Valley, Penn., on Monday, he called his dad. Less than a half hour later, manager Chad Tracey walked into the clubhouse and had an announcement. Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu was headed to the injury list with an oblique strain and Anthony was headed to Boston to make his much-awaited major-league debut.Advertisement“He came out and just said, ‘Hey, you’re going to the big leagues,’” Anthony said on Monday sitting in the Fenway Park dugout, surrounded by a throng of media. “From there on out, it’s kind of been a little bit of a blur.”Anthony called his dad back, relayed a quick message, packed his bags and hit the road for the 45-mile drive east from Worcester to Boston.

Did A’s Denzel Clarke secure MLB’s catch of the year with this crazy grab?
A’s center fielder Denzel Clarke made what was arguably the catch of the season Monday night, climbing the wall to rob the Angels’ Nolan Schanuel of a would-be home run.It’s the latest in a string of highlight-reel catches for the 25-year-old rookie, who is playing in just his 16th big-league game.Just three days ago, Clarke made a highlight-reel running catch, injuring his shoulder while running into the center-field wall to rob Baltimore’s Jorge Mateo of a would-be base hit. For that play, he was awarded MLB’s Play of the Week award.Clarke’s play against the Angels on Monday came in the first inning. Schanuel crushed a ball that appeared ticketed to go well over the left-center field wall. Instead, Clarke tracked it, leapt, and used the wall to elevate his glove to make the play. Schanuel looked in stunned silence before […]

WATCH: Athletics defensive wizard Denzel Clarke robs surefire home run in catch of the year candidate
Getty Images Catch of the year in Major League Baseball? It's too early to say definitively, of course, but this miracle snare by Denzel Clarke of the Athletics might just be the favorite as of June 9. You won't see a more jaw-dropping home-run robbery. A deep fly by Nolan Schanuel of the Angels had a .690 expected batting average on it, and per Statcast estimations, it would have been a home run in four of 30 MLB ballparks. Clarke, though, wasn't having it. Here's a look at what he did at the expense of the deep drive off Schanuel's bat on Monday night: Clarke is already no stranger to highlight grabs, as he proved mere days ago against the Orioles: Worth the price of admission, this guy. The 25-year-old rookie Clarke has played in just 16 games this season, but the center fielder […]
