US Open field: Who is playing at Pinehurst No.2?
Who has qualified to play at this year’s US Open at Pinehurst No.2? We have the full list of eligible players here…
The US Open, the third major of the year, is supposedly the toughest test in all of golf.
In 2024, it is up to Pinehurst No.2 to provide the challenge for the world’s best players who descend upon the famous North Carolina venue for the third major championship of the season.
Defending champion Wyndham Clark won the US Open in 2023, outlasting Rory McIlroy to win his first major title. He banked a huge 10-year exemption at America’s national championship and he will look to become the first player to defend the US Open title since Brooks Koepka in 2018. Koepka is the only player to defend the US Open title this century.
Tiger Woods has been granted a special exemption to play in the tournament after his eligibility for winning the 2019 Masters had run out. Woods is maintaining his schedule of playing in each major championship this season. He made the cut at the Masters, but missed the cut at the PGA Championship.
Along with Koepka, past US Open champions from the LIV Golf roster such as Bryson DeChambeau, Dustin Johnson and Martin Kaymer are in the field, as well as other players from the Saudi-backed roster including Tyrrell Hatton, Adrian Meronk and Cameron Smith.
Players at the top of the world amateur golf ranking and the Official World Golf Ranking will be eligible to play at Pinehurst No.2, as well as previous winners of The Open Championship, the Masters and the PGA Championship.
