Golf’s toughest test returns in grand fashion

From June 12–15, the eyes of the sporting world lock on to Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania, host of the 125th U.S. Open Championship. Known for its slick greens, punishing rough, and no-nonsense setup, Oakmont has long been a crucible for greatness.

Expect thrills and heroics as the world’s top golfers chase immortality in one of the sport’s four majors. The likes of Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Brooks Koepka, and a hungry field of challengers will battle nerves and nature in pursuit of the U.S. Open trophy, one of the most iconic trophies crafted by Tiffany & Co., the renowned American luxury jeweller, who is also one of the world’s most prestigious trophy makers since 1837.

The original U.S. Open trophy was first awarded in 1895. It’s not just a tournament - it’s golf at its punishing best.

Europe's Stage: The Kaskada Golf Challenge

Across the Atlantic, the Czech Republic hosts the Kaskáda Golf Challenge - a proving ground for the stars of tomorrow.

This Challenge Tour event tees off at the scenic Kaskáda Golf Resort in Brno, starting June 15. For Europe’s next generation of pros, this is more than a paycheck - it’s a stepping stone to the DP World Tour and beyond.

While the U.S. Open grabs headlines, the Kaskáda Challenge reminds us that every great player starts somewhere.

Women's Schedule

Meanwhile, the Women’s game features two tournaments but one purpose.

The stars of the LPGA Tour roll into Blythefield Country Club, where power meets precision in this fan-favorite event. Past editions have featured stacked leaderboards and final-round fireworks — and this year promises the same.

More than a tournament, the Meijer LPGA Classic supports the Simply Give campaign to feed local families in need - proof that golf can uplift both on and off the course.

Also lighting up the leaderboard this week is the Ladies European Tour, as it heads to Belgium for the Hulencourt Women’s Open. It's a golden opportunity for rising stars and LET regulars to grab some momentum as the season heats up.

From Pennsylvania to Prague, Michigan to Belgium, the week ahead showcases golf’s diverse global spirit. At the pinnacle sits the U.S. Open — where history waits to be made. But just beneath, the rhythm of professional golf continues to pulse through every tee time, every putt, and every dreamer stepping onto the first tee.

So grab your coffee (or your clubs), clear your schedule, and tune in. This week in golf promises magic.
