2025 US Open Picks & Predictions: Bryson DeChambeau
The third major of the year, the 2025 U.S. Open, begins Thursday at Oakmont Country Club in Western Pennsylvania.
Oakmont is a classic U.S. Open venue with narrow fairways, overgrown rough, and lightning-fast greens. We'll once again get to see the famous "Church Pews" - the huge bunker bordering holes No. 3 and No. 4 that has rows of grass strips in the sand.
It will be a challenging test for the best players in the world. Will we get a head-to-head duel between No. 1 player in the world Scottie Scheffler, who won the PGA Championship last month, and No. 2 Rory McIlroy, who won the Masters in April? Or will LIV Tour star Bryson DeChambeau successfully defend his 2024 U.S. Open title?
The BettingPros Guide to the 2025 U.S. Open will drill down on all the wagering opportunities this tournament presents, taking a closer look at the top contenders for America's national championship of golf.
Read on for our 2025 US Open picks and predictions for Bryson DeChambeau.
2025 US Open Picks & Predictions: Bryson DeChambeau
Let’s dive into our top bets, picks, and predictions for the 2025 U.S. Open for Bryson DeChambeau.

Course History
Bryson DeChambeau's legendary up-and-down out of the bunker on the final hole during the 2024 U.S. Open led to a one-stroke win over Rory McIlroy at Pinehurst No. 2. The LIV golfer has two U.S. Open wins since 2020.
Recent Form
DeChambeau has carded top 5 finishes at both majors played this season. He was in the final pairing with Rory McIlroy at The Masters before a 75 cratered his chance to contend for the outright win. A runner-up finish at Quail Hollow Club was solid, but it wasn't enough to catch Scheffler, who won by five strokes.
Betting Outlook: 2025 U.S. Open Picks & Predictions
I'm not bullish on DeChambeau at Oakmont this week. He's a bomber off the tee, but DeChambeau's accuracy is not consistent, which will lead to some difficult lies in the five-inch rough that flanks narrow fairways and fast-paced greens. DeChambeau is -110 in the Top 10 Finish prop betting market, which could return decent value if his short game around the greens is in top form.
