Some of the world’s most recognizable names in golf, including defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, won’t be around at the US Open this weekend after missing the cut at the brutal Oakmont Country Club.

The third major championship of the 2025 golf season has hit the weekend with the game's two best players entering having already claimed the most notable titles of the year. The USGA has loaded up its premier event with nearly all the top golfers in the world competing as the 2025 U.

While the underdog stories who qualify for the US Open are always fun, so too are the notable names, whether they're involved with golf at large or not, who are also trying to play their way in.
