OAKMONT, Pa. – J.J. Spaun’s closing pursuit of major glory began at 3 a.m. Sunday in, of all places, a CVS in downtown Pittsburgh. Spaun’s almost 2-year-old daughter, Violet, had woken up with a stomach bug, and mere hours into Father’s Day, dad duty called.

Spaun learned from previous errors to make history at the 2025 U.S. Open, writes Bob Harig. Plus, notes on the low amateur, the PGA Tour's new CEO and other stats from an epic U.S. Open.

But one-by-one, everyone sputtered, and Spaun made birdies on Nos. 12, 14 and the aforementioned 17 and 18 to thrill the masses. The 34-year-old Los Angeles-area native shot 66-72-69-72. "Fortunately, it was my time," said Spaun, who claims the 2022 Valero Texas Open as his sole PGA Tour title.

J.J. Spaun has won the U.S. Open Championship and his first major with a thrilling, birdie-birdie finish to rally for victory at Oakmont Country Club. Spaun, 34, only had one win on the PGA Tour prior to his thrilling win at the U.S. Open.

The 125th U.S. Open concludes Sunday at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. NBC, Peacock and USA Network have full coverage combined with exclusive featured groups, All Access and a multi-view experience.

J.J. Spaun capped a hand-wringing 2025 U.S. Open in epic fashion with a putt of truly miraculous proportions. The 34-year-old American made a 64-foot, 5-inch putt on the 72nd hole of the tournament Sunday to clinch his first major championship and just the second PGA Tour win of his career.

J.J. Spaun managed the rain and a tough Oakmont course to win the 2025 U.S. Open, the first major victory for the California native.

Dan Patrick discusses the "war of attrition" that was the 125th U.S. Open, sharing why Oakmont Country Club was "the star" of the tournament and how J.J. Spaun beat "the best" and "the beast."
