Dustin Johnson is the favourite with the bookmakers having risen to Number One in the World Rankings again and also having recently claimed the FedExCup. But there are plenty of other big names who are short odds - check out the US Open Favourites for 2020.
The event this year was originally scheduled to take place in June, but due to the Covid-19 pandemic it was rescheduled for September - it becomes the second Major to be played in 2020 the first of course being won by Collin Morikawa at the PGA Championship.

The course at Winged Foot is a beast of a course with a very large yardage, thick rough and very sloppy and quick greens - it is unlikely that even par will be broken many times over the four days.
The last time the event was played at Winged Foot Geoff Ogilvy outlasted the best players in the world to take the title - Colin Montgomerie and Phil Mickelson suffering double bogeys on the 72nd hole to miss out.
Who will win this event this year? Keep an eye out on the US Open Leaderboard 2020 to see if one of the Europeans can break the four year spell of American winners?
