The final time the US Open was held there in 2018, DeChambeau tied for twenty fifth.

JJ Spaun (+6)

After he lastly obtained over the hump at the Tour Championship final August, many thought this might be the 12 months Tommy Lad will get it accomplished in a serious. Instead, he quietly tied for thirty third at Augusta and shot 72-73 this week to miss the minimize in the PGA Championship for the first time in 5 years. The Englishman has only one top-10 in his final 10 majors.
Bob Mac was turning into a big-game hunter late final 12 months, ending runner-up at Oakmont, T-7 at the Open, and then backing that up with one other sturdy end in an enormous occasion in March (solo fourth at the Players).
