In a dramatic and rain-soaked finale at Oakmont, J.J. Spaun claimed his first major title at the U.S. Open, overcoming significant challenges and a fierce competition. The course was praised for its difficulty, contributing to a thrilling atmosphere as Spaun executed an impressive rally to secure his victory. Highlighted by an incredible 65-foot birdie putt on the 18th green, Spaun transformed a near-disastrous round into a memorable triumph, a feat made even more poignant by his previous close call with quitting golf. The win not only provided him with acclaim but also a significant prize and a surge in interest for a small putter company. Spaun credited his success to advice from Tiger Woods and an unexpected rain delay that seemed to inspire his comeback. The day ended in celebration as he joined the ranks of U.S. Open legends.
