Normally, the US Open provides the biggest test in golf on an annual basis. We saw it for the men in 2025, as J.J. Spaun of Los Angeles, California won at Oakmont despite posting a score of only -1.
However, in women’s golf this season, it is safe to say that the 2025 Women’s PGA Championship at Fields Ranch East in Frisco, Texas, outside of Dallas, was significantly more difficult than the 2025 United States Women’s Open at Erin Hills, Wisconsin. The reason was simple and something that was completely out of the control of tournament organizers. Mother Nature had its say as the weather had a significant impact.
