2025 US Open Free Betting Tips & Predictions | James Hubbard

The ever-popular and defending US Open Champion, Bryson DeChambeau, is my first pick this year. The American has won this event twice, in 2020 at Winged Foot and in 2024 at Pinehurst No.2. He's also got his head around Augusta after two top 6 finishes in the last two years. These results suggest that DeChambeau has found the game to compete on tough golf courses, and that feels like a great omen if you are in the Americans' camp.

His power his unquestioned, and he is the longest hitter in the field, which could prove a massive advantage on a course like this, if he keeps his accuracy stable.

Bryson has finished in the top six in his last five American Major tournaments and has been leading at a point during the week in his last five starts. As always, DeChambeau will be fired up and will want to prove a point against the PGA Tour's best players, and he'll have a great chance again here at Oakmont.

Sepp Straka has had a breakthrough season in 2025 and has already won twice this year, at The American Express in January and the Truist Championship last month. The 32-year-old has cemented his place in the European Ryder Cup team for this year, and the only thing missing on his resume right now is a Major Championship win.

The Austrian has missed the cut in both Majors so far this season, at The Masters and The PGA, but if we look at his stats, it looks very promising for a course like this. On the PGA Tour this season, he's ranked 2nd for Strokes Gained (Total), 4th for SG (Tee-To-Green), 3rd for SG (Approach The Green), and 17th for SG (Putting).

For me, looking at those stats, you can't ignore a player like Straka at Oakmont, and I think he'll be well in the mix come Sunday.

Harris English has a fantastic record at the US Open with three top 10s in his last 5 starts. The American also has a scoring average of 71.81 at this event, and if he does that again this week, he'll be well in the mix.

English has finished in the top 22 in five of the last six US Major Championships, including a career best 12th at The Masters in April.

A winner earlier this year at The Farmers Insurance Open and a 2nd at the PGA Championship last month behind Scottie Scheffler, makes 60/1 look a very enticing price for the 35-year-old.

Cameron Young remains winless on the PGA Tour in his career, but has gone closer than most over the last few seasons. He lost his form completely at the start of 2025 with five missed cuts in nine events, but he is now starting to show signs of some form.

He has four top 25s in his last seven starts, including a T4 last week at the RBC Canadian Open. A T25 at The Memorial Tournament the week before in a signature event is also a positive sign coming into this week's US Open.

If we go on the trend that there's been a lot of first-time Major Winners over the past 16 years at the US Open, I think Young fits that bill perfectly. After struggling to get over the line in a standard PGA Event so many times, a Major Title will be just what he needs to kick on in his career, and at 100/1, it looks great value to me.
