McIlroy Pars, DeChambeau Bogeys and Aberg Leads as US Open Begins

The 2025 US Open began on June 12 at Oakmont Country Club with Bryson DeChambeau struggling in his title defense amid a tough course.
DeChambeau's poor start included failing to mark his ball on the fifth hole, forcing a penalty and reducing his early momentum.
Despite rebounding to even par through 11 holes, DeChambeau trailed the leader by four strokes and commentators criticized his rule infraction.
Rory McIlroy, the reigning Masters champion, faced a performance slump and low energy ahead of the US Open, raising concern from former Ryder Cup captain Paul McGinley.
McIlroy admitted finding motivation difficult since winning the Masters in April and is aiming to reset and regain form at the challenging Oakmont course.
