The trend of major championship victories by golf’s biggest stars has continued into 2025. In 2024, Scottie Scheffler (Masters), Xander Schauffele (PGA Championship and Open Championship), and Bryson DeChambeau (U.S. Open) claimed the four major titles. This year, Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have already won the first two majors of the season. Next up is the 2025 U.S. Open, which is slated to begin on Thursday, June 12, at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania.
DeChambeau, last year’s U.S. Open champion, enters as a strong contender after finishing near the top in both of this year’s majors. According to the latest 2025 U.S. Open odds, Scheffler is the favorite at +280 (risk $100 to win $280), followed by DeChambeau (+700), McIlroy (+1100) and Jon Rahm (+1200). Will the favorites dominate the leaderboard at Oakmont, or will a sleeper like Hideki Matsuyama (+6500) or Jordan Spieth (+5500) emerge from the field and come away with the win? Before locking in your 2025 U.S. Open picks, be sure to see the golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine.
SportsLine’s proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June 2020. In fact, the model is up nearly $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.
This same model has also nailed a whopping 15 majors entering the weekend, including the 2025 Masters – its fourth Masters in a row – and the 2025 PGA Championship. 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.
Now that the 2025 U.S. Open field is taking shape, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard.
2025 U.S. Open predictions
One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2025 U.S. Open: Rory McIlroy, a past U.S. Open champion and the third-favorite at +1100, stumbles and falls all the way out of the top five. McIlroy was the talk of the golf world in April when he won the Masters, finally breaking through to complete his career grand slam.
There hasn’t been much to like about his game since that point, however. He and Shane Lowry finished T12 at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans the next week despite being substantial favorites. McIlroy then finished T7 at the Truist Championship, T47 at the PGA Championship and then missed the cut at last week’s RBC Canadian Open. He’s not a strong pick to win it all at this number, and there are far better values in the 2025 U.S. Open field. See who else to fade here.
Another surprise: Justin Thomas, a 40-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. A two-time PGA Championship winner, Thomas has reclaimed his spot as one of the premier golfers in the world after an extended bout with inconsistent play. He has risen to No. 5 in the Official World Golf Ranking. Thomas has 16 career PGA Tour victories, including a win at the 2025 RBC Heritage.
In total, Thomas has six top-10 finishes in 2025. He currently ranks third on the PGA Tour in total strokes gained (1.580), fifth in strokes gained on approach shots (0.812), and eighth in strokes gained tee-to-green (1.151). Given his well-rounded skillset and recent form, the model is expecting Thomas to contend at Oakmont in 2025. See who else to pick here.
How to make 2025 U.S. Open picks
The model is also targeting four other golfers with odds of 25-1 or longer who will make a strong run at the title. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model’s picks here.
Who will win the 2025 U.S. Open, and which longshots will stun the golfing world? Check out the 2025 U.S. Open odds below and then visit SportsLine to see the projected leaderboard, all from the model that’s nailed 15 golf majors, including the last four Masters and the first two majors in 2025.

Chargers’ rebuilt interior defensive line just might be the deepest spot on the roster
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Entering training camp, there was some uncertainty surrounding the Los Angeles Chargers’ interior defensive line.Now, with just one practice remaining before the Chargers break camp, that group has turned into perhaps the deepest position on the roster.All the answerable questions have been answered. The only unanswered question remaining: What will the defensive line look like when the regular season begins Sept. 5 against the Kansas City Chiefs in Brazil?AdvertisementTeair Tart, who re-signed with the Chargers on a one-year deal in March, has looked dominant at times in practice as a pass rusher and run defender.Otito Ogbonnia looks like one of the most improved players on the roster, particularly in his get-off as a pass rusher.Da’Shawn Hand, whom the Chargers signed in free agency, has been one of the team’s top performers in preseason games.
