US Open venues: Past, present and future
Here is a list of every single US Open venue in the history of the event, as well as all of the ones booked in for the future…
The US Open is regarded as the ‘toughest test in golf’ with long firm courses, thick punishing rough and lightning-quick greens.
Since the first US Open in 1895, the tournament has been held at the very best golf courses in the States.
Los Angeles Country Club played host to the 2023 US Open which was impressively won by Wyndham Clark by overcoming Rory McIlroy.
The event has been won by the best players ever to pick up a club such as Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Gary Player and Arnold Palmer.
