The US Open 2025 is shaping up to be a tough challenge for some of the sport's biggest names. Scottie Scheffler, Jon Rahm, and Rory McIlroy are all facing an uphill battle after a rough second day on the course.

The cut line for the weekend was a brutal seven-over, and McIlroy only just made it. He had a better round than his first, but it was still a struggle. He managed to avoid the cut line by just two strokes, which means he has a lot of ground to make up.

Scheffler had a day of ups and downs. He managed to stay at just one-over for the day, but it was a hard-fought battle. He ended up seven shots behind the leader, which is a significant gap to close.

Rahm had a tough day on the course. He finished with a five-over round, which included a double bogey and four bogeys. He only managed one birdie, which was not enough to keep him in the running.

The leader, Burns, is currently seven shots ahead of Scheffler. This means that Scheffler, Rahm, and McIlroy will need to play exceptionally well if they want to catch up.

The weekend is looking tough for these golfers. They will need to bring their A-game if they want to contend for the title. It's going to be interesting to see how they bounce back from these setbacks.
