Join Executive Editor James “Jim” Beatty for daily updates on the thrilling action at the 2024 U.S. Open Championship. This year’s event is historic, marking the first time in over a century that the USGA has awarded four Opens to the same site within 25 years.
Who’s in the Field for the 2024 U.S. Open Golf Championship?
The world’s top-ranked golfer and reigning Masters champion, Scottie Scheffler, headlines the field as the 124th U.S. Open kicks off Thursday at North Carolina’s Pinehurst Resort. A total of 156 players will compete, with over half earning their spots based on world rankings, past tournament victories, tour standings, or special exemptions.
Fifteen-time major champion Tiger Woods joins the field under a special exemption from the USGA, having last played the U.S. Open in 2020. Woods, currently ranked No. 829 in the Official World Golf Ranking, seeks his 16th major title.
The U.S. Open takes place June 13-16, 2024, at Pinehurst Resort’s historic No. 2 course. Despite recent struggles, Tiger Woods will be aiming for a fourth U.S. Open title thanks to his special exemption. Unlike the Masters and PGA Championship, the U.S. Open does not offer lifetime exemptions to past champions, which makes Woods’ participation notable as his five-year exemption from his 2019 Masters victory has expired.
