"Oakmont got a little too cute"; 'Back to YouTube' – Fans react to Bryson DeChambeau's shock missed cut at the US Open 2025

Bryson DeChambeau was unable to defend his title at the 2025 US Open at Oakmont Country Club. Fans online have reacted to his shockingly poor performance, saying that perhaps the LIV Golf star needs to focus on his YouTube channel.

DeChambeau has won nine events on the PGA Tour, three on the European Tour, and three individual titles on LIV Golf. He has won the US Open twice and has placed second in the PGA Championship twice.

During his first round at the 2025 US Open, Bryson DeChambeau shot two birdies and five bogeys to card a 3-over 73. On day two, he fared worse and shot three birdies, eight bogeys, and a double bogey, which brought his total score to 10-over 150. He landed at T91, three strokes away from the tournament’s cut line of 7-over.

One fan reacted to the news of DeChambeau’s missed cut, saying:

One user stated that they didn’t expect Bryson DeChambeau to perform well in the first place.

“That was easy money for me. Didn’t think he was gonna make the cut, his iron play has been scruffy at best, but got away with it and set ups that had virtually no right.”

Another user wrote:

“What happens when you play on a real course instead of that joke last year.”

Meanwhile, other users showed support for the LIV golfer. One commented:

“Bryson may have missed the cut, but my guess is he will go and do some fun stuff and have a LOT OF FUN doing it. He’s good like that.”

Another user remarked:

“Anything is possible! Even good players have a bad day at the office.”

Last year, Bryson DeChambeau won the US Open with 6-under 274, one stroke ahead of Rory McIlroy. In 2020, he won the tournament with the same score, but was six strokes ahead of Mathew Wolff, the runner-up.
