Fans should be ready to tune in for the action from start to finish at Oakmont, especially to watch the most exciting tee times and groupings for the week. Those were announced by the USGA on Tuesday for the tournament.

The biggest marquee pairings, as most major championship governing bodies tend to do, are just about equally divided between the morning and afternoon waves, which is really to cater to golf fans (and we thank them for it!).

But the U.S. Open will actually get started with one of the best stories of the tournament as amateur Matt Vogt, a dentist who made it through qualifying, is going off in the first group off of the first tee. That will be a great story to get the week underway at Oakmont before we get into the more likely contenders who tee off.

As with any tournament, but majors specifically, the early-late and late-early waves could have an advantage based on the weather. That could really be seen on Friday as the afternoon wave could see thunderstorms. While that could mean some increased winds, it could also mean a stoppage of play and a return to a softer, more getable golf course. That will certainly be something to watch in Round 2 if the weather forecast holds up.

Best groupings at the 2025 U.S. Open for the first and second rounds

1. Viktor Hovland, Collin Morikawa, Scottie Scheffler (1:25 p.m./7:40 a.m.*)

Watching Scheffler at Oakmont figures to be a treat. This course and all the difficulty it presents is tailor-made for the World No. 1 to take advantage. But pairing him with Hovland and Morikawa makes it all the more interesting. The test of ball-striking and accuracy fits both of the young stars in the game, but both have shown some cracks in their form of late. Will they rise to the occasion of trying to match Scheffler in the same grouping, or will they shrink for the moment? This is No. 1 with a bullet if we're ranking the best groups to watch.

2. Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, Rory McIlroy (7:40 a.m.*/1:25 p.m.)

Since his win at The Masters, Rory hasn't looked quite the same. Part of that (a big part) has been his woes with the driver after his normal big stick was deemed non-conforming at the PGA Championship. However, based on the form he was showing leading up to Augusta, he should be a great fit for Oakmont. Seeing how he performs, particularly off the tee, should be intriguing.

Beyond that, Lowry was actually the 54-hole leader at Oakmont in 2016 and has been playing stellar golf this season, particularly with the ball-striking, while Rose is paired with Rory after losing the playoff at The Masters to the Northern Irishman.

3. Jordan Spieth, Jon Rahm, Dustin Johnson (1:14 p.m.*/7:29 a.m.)

Fraught emotions, rollercoasters and U.S. Open victories are abound in this group and it's going to be wildly fun to see what this group does. I'm a big believer in Rahm this week as he's seemed more akin to the major championship form we expect this season and has been showing the right signs of late. Johnson is on the opposite end of the spectrum, looking completely lost compared to his peak, but he is the defending champ at Oakmont specifically. Then there's Spieth, the ultimate wild card who would deliver the same level of shock value if he won than if he missed the cut by 10 strokes.

4. Ludvig Åberg, Adam Scott, Hideki Matsuyama (7:18 a.m.*/1:03 p.m.)

Honestly, this is just a golf swing enthusiast's dream. No one in this trio has really been in peak form throughout the 2025 season, but the truth of the matter is that this group will take everyone on a trip to the ball-striking clinic if they're on. Moreover, despite the objective lack of recent success from Åberg, Scott and Matsuyama, all three possess the talent and the potential to find it on a week like this and put themselves in contention. That's worth watching in my book.
