Bryson DeChambeau's missed cut streak continues at the 2026 U.S. Open. He finished with a score of 5 over.

What happened?

DeChambeau started strong, coming back to finish his first round at 6:35 a.m. ET sitting at 1 under. However, he gave one back on his final hole, the 9th, to post an opening round 70.

Why it matters for Bryson DeChambeau

His second round got off to an inauspicious start as he made back-to-back double bogeys on the 3rd and 4th holes. DeChambeau made three birdies in his round, but two of them were sandwiched between bogeys or double bogeys.

What comes next?

DeChambeau will head to Royal Birkdale at risk of going 0-for-4 in making the weekend at a major championship in 2026. He will have plenty of company in leaving Shinnecock Hills frustrated, including his LIV cohort Jon Rahm.

Bryson DeChambeau's hopes of contending for a third U.S. Open title quickly faded away. He found himself spending another Friday battling the cut line.

The top 60 and ties made it to the weekend at the U.S. Open, and this week that ultimately required a score of 4 over or better. DeChambeau's score of 5 over was not enough to make the cut.

Notable players to miss the cut at the 2026 U.S. Open include Viktor Hovland, Rickie Fowler, and Brooks Koepka. DeChambeau's missed cut is his fourth in his last five starts.

DeChambeau's LIV cohort Jon Rahm also missed the cut. Rahm was the only player to go bogey-free in his first round, but he stumbled to a first nine 37 to make the turn at even par overall.

Rahm's frustrations built over missed putts and poorly executed shots, and he melted down with four bogeys and a double in a five-hole stretch from No. 12 to No. 16. This led to his early exit from the tournament.

DeChambeau and Rahm will look to bounce back from their disappointing performances at the 2026 U.S. Open. They will face stiff competition at Royal Birkdale, but they are determined to make a strong showing.

The 2026 U.S. Open has been a challenging tournament for many players, including DeChambeau and Rahm. The course at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club has shown plenty of teeth and caused headaches for some of the best players in the world.

DeChambeau's missed cut is a setback, but he is already looking ahead to his next tournament. He will work to regain his form and make a strong showing at Royal Birkdale.

On 18 Jun, DeChambeau finished his second round with a score of 5-over 75. This was not enough to make the cut, and he will head to Royal Birkdale at risk of going 0-for-4 in making the weekend at a major championship in 2026.
