Bryson DeChambeau claimed his second U.S. Open title by the narrowest of margins, holing a 3-foot, 11-inch birdie putt on the 72nd hole to win by a single stroke. The victory, his first major since the 2020 U.S. Open, was a testament to DeChambeau’s determination and resilience.

DeChambeau had trailed by two strokes heading into the final round but shot a 2-under 68 to force a playoff with Matthew Fitzpatrick. In the three-hole playoff, DeChambeau birdied the first hole and held on for pars on the next two to secure the victory.

It was a dramatic conclusion to a major championship that was full of twists and turns. DeChambeau’s victory was a reminder that even the smallest of margins can make all the difference in golf.
