The U.S. Open field has officially been trimmed down. The second round of the tournament at Oakmont Country Club came to a close on Friday night and only three participants were under par. Sam Burns led all golfers at three under par while J.J. Spaun was second at two under and Victor Hovland rounded out the top three at one under par.

Though contracts for those who signed with LIV have not been made publicly available, it has been largely understood in the golf industry that DeChambeau signed for north of $100 million on a deal that ends in 2026.

Three years ago nearly to the day, DeChambeau — who theretofore had publicly declared his allegiance to the PGA Tour — announced he was leaving for LIV. For the Saudi-backed tour, it was a coup, landing the game's most enigmatic figure. For DeChambeau, it was a massive financial haul, worth reportedly north of $125 million.
