For most of the year, professional golf looks like a closed shop. Then, for one Monday in June, the U.S. Open kicks the door open: anyone with a 0.4 Handicap Index or better can enter, and a single brutal 36-hole day stands between a qualifier and a tee time at Shinnecock Hills. This is the page we keep pinned through all of it. Two waves are already done. The marathon is June 8.
There's a long-standing rhythm to the U.S. Open calendar: the international and Texas-based contingents get their day first. On Monday, May 18, two venues separated by six time zones — Walton Heath in Surrey and Dallas Athletic Club in Texas — filled the first 13 seats at Shinnecock. A week later, on May 25, Hino Golf Club in Japan added the eastern gateway. Here's how they finished.
Those tickets to Shinnecock are punched, two former major champions among them. The rest of the 156-player field — minus the exempt stars — comes down to a single day.
Ten venues. 715 entries for a yet-to-be-announced number of spots, played across four U.S. time zones from a Georgia dawn to an Oregon dusk. Golf Channel carries 10 hours of coverage (noon–2 p.m. and 4 p.m.–midnight ET); the USGA posts simultaneous scoring; and the playoffs for the final spots routinely run into the dark.
Below is the field, site by site — the course intelligence, the marquee names entered, and a live scoring link straight to each leaderboard in our database.
Broadcast: Golf Channel carries 10 hours of “Golf's Longest Day” coverage — noon–2 p.m. and 4 p.m.–midnight ET. Live scoring: the fastest way to follow every site at once is right here — each venue above links to its live leaderboard in the AmateurGolf.com tournament database, and the USGA posts simultaneous scoring at usopen.com. We publish site-by-site recaps — medalists, amateurs, and alternate-position playoffs — within hours of each finish.
The final field size and the exact number of qualifying spots per site are set by the USGA and announced Monday morning. Want the bigger picture first? Start with our 2026 U.S. Open Local Qualifying results across all 109 sites, then follow the survivors here.
From the 13 Final Qualifying sites, the USGA fills a large share of the 156 spots at Shinnecock Hills, with the exact allocation per site set by field strength. The rest of the field arrives via exemption categories — major winners, top OWGR rankings, defending champions, and USGA event winners.
Historically, only two players have won the U.S. Open after surviving both local and final qualifying: Ken Venturi (1964) and Orville Moody (1969). Many more have won after advancing through final qualifying alone — Gene Littler, Julius Boros, Jerry Pate, Steve Jones, Michael Campbell and Lucas Glover among them. Glover, in fact, is entered again this year — at The Lakes in Westerville, Ohio.
Shinnecock Hills will play 7,434 yards at par 70 for the 2026 championship, June 18–21. One of the USGA's five founding member clubs, it's hosting its sixth U.S. Open — and it remains the only course to have hosted the championship across three different centuries: 1896, 1986, 1995, 2004, 2018, and now 2026.
By the time the final group walks up Shinnecock's 18th on Sunday, June 21, every player in the field will have a story that traces back through one of these 13 venues. The dream is wide open. The dream runs through these courses — and on June 8, all ten of them at once.
Golf's Longest Day — the main wave of 2026 U.S. Open Final Qualifying — is Monday, June 8, 2026. Ten venues (nine U.S., one in Canada) host 36-hole qualifiers on the same day. Walton Heath (England) and Dallas Athletic Club played May 18; Hino Golf Club (Japan) played May 25.
England's Nathan Kimsey won medalist honors at Walton Heath with a two-round total of 130 (−14), highlighted by a second-round 62, winning by two over Spain's Rocco Repetto Taylor (−12).
Former U.S. Amateur champion Peter Uihlein earned medalist honors at −9. Among the nine to advance were four-time PGA Tour winner Tom Kim (−8) and 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell (−4).
Three former champions are entered for June 8: Webb Simpson (2012, at Gaston CC), Lucas Glover (2009, at The Lakes) and Geoff Ogilvy (2006, at Del Paso). The oldest competitor is 63-year-old Michael McCoy; the youngest is 14-year-old Nico Gordic-Ronderos.
AmateurGolf.com hosts live scoring and full leaderboards for every Final Qualifying site in its tournament database — each venue on this tracker links directly to its leaderboard. Golf Channel also carries 10 hours of June 8 coverage (noon–2 p.m. and 4 p.m.–midnight ET), and the USGA posts simultaneous scoring at usopen.com.
The 2026 U.S. Open will be contested June 18–21 at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York. It plays 7,434 yards at par 70 and marks the club's sixth U.S. Open — the only course to host the championship across three different centuries.
