Tyler Weaver Living the Dream as He Makes Major Debut at US Open

Posted : 11 June 2025

Tyler Weaver, a 20-year-old amateur golfer from Suffolk, is set to make his major championship debut at the US Open this Thursday at Oakmont. After an impressive practice round with two-time champion Brooks Koepka and a standout performance in a 36-hole qualifier in Atlanta, Weaver is now poised to compete alongside the sport’s elite.

 

The Florida State University standout has quickly risen through the ranks, driven by a family steeped in sporting excellence—his father Jason was a former flat racing jockey and his grandfather Eric played professional football for Swindon Town.

 

Weaver's journey has been fueled by determination and a supportive family. His older brother Max, who will caddie for him this week, has been a close companion on the golf course since their childhood days in Newmarket.

 

The two share a competitive bond, with Max recalling how Tyler’s game always seemed one step ahead. Their parents, Jason and Fiona, will be in the gallery, watching proudly as Tyler tees off for his first round at 14:31 local time (19:31 BST), marking a special reunion after time spent apart due to Tyler's college commitments in the US.

 

Practicing with Koepka offered Weaver critical insights into playing a US Open course, with a key takeaway being the importance of avoiding double bogeys. Tyler remains grounded, expressing gratitude for the community support back home, including members of the Links Club in Newmarket who helped fund his early development. With a clear goal of making the cut and embracing the pressure of the big stage, Weaver is determined to enjoy the experience while giving it everything he's got alongside his family.
