Former Purdue golfer Adam Schenk will tee it up at the 2025 U.S. Open this week, hoping to find himself in the mix for a major championship on Sunday. It is the second major he has participated in this year.
Schenk is participating in the U.S. Open for the fourth time in his career. His best finish came in 2022, when he tied for 24th place on the leaderboard. He has played in the event each of the last two years, but did not make the weekend cut.
Schenk's opening round will get underway at 12:52 p.m. ET on Thursday. He is paired with Victor Perez and Jacob Bridgeman for the first two rounds. On Friday, he is scheduled for a 7:07 a.m. tee time.
The U.S. Open is being held at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pa.
Last month, Schenk had his best finish of the PGA Tour season in The CJ Cup Byron Nelson. The former Boilermaker finished the event 17-under-par, finishing in a tie for fifth place. He also had a sixth-place finish at the Sony Open in Hawaii back in January.
Schenk participated in The Masters in April but did not play in the PGA Championship in May. He is still searching for his first PGA Tour victory and major win.
The Vincennes, Ind. native was a member of the Purdue men's golf team from 2010-14 and turned professional in 2015.
