US Open golf 2025: first round pits players against brutal Oakmont setup – live

JJ Spaun can’t make his birdie putt on 13. But he’s now sole leader of the US Open, because Ludvig Åberg makes a mess of the par-five 12th, going for the pin with his third and finding sand, then only splashing out into the rough. After bundling his chip eight feet past the hole, he does extremely well to make the putt coming back and limit the damage to bogey. Meanwhile Adam Scott bounces back from an opening bogey at 10 with birdies at 11 and 12, while Eric Cole does the same with birdies at 12 and 14. All change at the top!

-2: Spaun (4*)
-1: Cole (5*), Åberg (3*), Scott (3*), McIlroy (2*), S Kim (2*)

  • Brazil forward, a childhood United fan, joins from Wolves

Manchester United have completed the £62.5m signing of Matheus Cunha from Wolves, with the forward intent on helping the club “back to the top”. The 26-year-old has a five-year contract with the option of a further year and will be paid about £150,000 a week.

Largest ever plunge in UK exports to US as Trump tariffs hurt growth; dollar hits three-year low – business live

UK economy shrank by 0.3% in April, biggest fall since October 2023, as trade with the US slumped

Nicholas Hyett, Investment Manager at Wealth Club, blames “a cocktail of headwinds to growth” for the 0.3% fall in UK GDP in April.

Hyett says:

In the very short term the change to Stamp Duty rules have put the legal and property services on ice - with legal activities down 10.2% month-on-month.

New barriers to trade with the US and changes to employment costs, from a higher living wage and increased national insurance contributions, are a longer term challenge.

“The 0.3% m/m fall in real GDP in April supports our view that the strength in Q1 was unsustainable. This won’t prompt the Bank of England to cut interest rates next Thursday. But it is one more piece of news pointing to another cut in August.”

We still expect the Bank Rate to be maintained at 4.25% in the June meeting, to allow still troubling earnings growth to continue to ease. We anticipate the next rate cuts to occur in the August and November meetings to 3.75%, prompted by mounting economic hardships.”

While there is little chance of any change at next week’s meeting, we see a strong possibility that the MPC ditches its hawkish bias, which could pave the way for an August cut.”
