Sam Burns leads the 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club after three rounds.

Only four players are under par for the championship.

J.J. Spaun and Viktor Hovland are among those in contention.

Oakmont has been kind to first -time winners in seven of the last nine majors held here.

Oakmont is winning, but only one player will be crowned its champion on Sunday .

None of the players between Carlos Ortiz at even par and Scheffler at 4 over has won a major, either.

“If I were to come away with it tomorrow , it would be a hell of a round of golf and an exclamation point on my career”.
