2024 U.S. Open Preview & Picks

With his win at the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday, Scottie Scheffler captured his 11th PGA TOUR title and fifth of the season. This makes him the first player to win five times in a season on TOUR before the U.S. Open since Tom Watson in 1980. Scheffler also becomes the seventh player since 1983 (16th instance) to achieve five or more wins in a single season on TOUR, and the first since Justin Thomas in 2016-17 (5).

Pre-Tournament Storylines

Scottie Scheffler

World No. 1 and FedExCup leader Scottie Scheffler enters the week with victories in five of his last eight starts on TOUR. He has also secured top-10 finishes in his last three U.S. Open appearances (3rd in 2023, T2 in 2022, T7 in 2021). Scheffler aims to become the first player to win multiple majors in the same year since Brooks Koepka (2018 U.S. Open and PGA Championship). The last player to win on TOUR and subsequently win a major the following week was Rory McIlroy in 2014 (won the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational before the PGA Championship).

Xander Schauffele

2024 PGA Championship winner Xander Schauffele comes into the U.S. Open with a remarkable record, having finished inside the top 15 in all seven of his career appearances, including top-fives in 2017 (T5), 2019 (T3), and 2020 (5th). Schauffele has also finished inside the top 20 in each of the last nine major championships dating back to the 2022 PGA Championship. A win would make Schauffele the first player to win consecutive major championships since Jordan Spieth in 2015.

Tiger Woods

Three-time U.S. Open winner Tiger Woods is making his fourth start of the season (WD/The Genesis Invitational, 60th/Masters Tournament, MC/PGA Championship) and his first U.S. Open appearance since 2020.

Course/ Tournament History:

The United States Open Championship, commonly known as the U.S. Open, is the annual open national championship of golf in the United States and is the third of the four major championships in professional golf.

History and Evolution

The inaugural U.S. Open was played in 1895 at the Newport Country Club in Newport, Rhode Island, on a nine-hole course. It was a single-day, 36-hole competition. John J. McDermott became the first American-born winner of the U.S. Open in 1911.

Traditionally, the U.S. Open employed an 18-hole playoff if players were tied after 72 holes. However, in 2018, this format was changed to a two-hole aggregate playoff. If the tie persists after two holes, the competition moves to a sudden-death format.

Benefits for Winners

Winning the U.S. Open comes with significant rewards:

• A five-year exemption on the PGA Tour.
• Invitations to play in the three other majors for the next five years.
• A ten-year exemption from qualifying for the U.S. Open itself.

Pinehurst No. 2

Pinehurst No. 2, designed by the legendary Scottish golf course architect Donald Ross, was constructed in 1907 and has seen various modifications while preserving its essential character. A significant restoration in 2010 by Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw aimed to return the course to Ross’s original vision, emphasizing natural sandscapes, native wiregrass, and strategic play by reducing the amount of rough.

Course Features

• Greens: Known for their crowned, undulating nature, the greens at Pinehurst No. 2 are among the most challenging in golf, requiring precise approach shots.
• Layout: The fairways are generally wide, but the course features extensive sandscapes and natural areas instead of traditional rough, creating a unique and visually striking layout.

Championship History

Pinehurst No. 2 has hosted several notable U.S. Open Championships:

• 1999: Payne Stewart’s dramatic victory, highlighted by a memorable 15-foot par putt on the 18th hole.
• 2005: Michael Campbell’s triumph over Tiger Woods.
• 2014: Martin Kaymer’s dominant 8-shot victory.

In 2014, Pinehurst No. 2 made history by hosting the U.S. Women’s Open the week following the U.S. Open, marking the first time both events were held on the same course in consecutive weeks. Michelle Wie won her first major championship in this event.

Future Events

Pinehurst No. 2 is also slated to host the U.S. Open in 2029, 2035, 2041, and 2047, continuing its legacy as a premier venue for major golf championships.

Course Guide/ Scorecard:

Originally crafted by Donald Ross in 1907, Pinehurst No. 2 features a Par 70 layout, comprising four Par 3s, twelve Par 4s, and two Par 5s.

In terms of length, Pinehurst No. 2 is one of the longer courses on the Tour measuring 7,548 yards. It ranks 2nd out of 44 courses in length. The fairways are on the wider side, ranking 6th of 44, with the average fairway width being 40.0 yards. The average green size is roughly 6500 square feet which is on the larger side when compared to the other courses on the PGA Tour. Bunkers are a huge factor here as there are 117 which ranks as the 2nd most of 44 courses.

The four Par 3’s range between 184 yards and 228 yards. In terms of stats, two of the Par 3’s range between 175-200 yards. In the last edition of this event, all of the Par 3’s had a scoring average over par.

No. 6, 228 Yards, Par 3: “A significant false front must be negotiated on this, the longest of Course No. 2s par-3 holes. An expansive tee allows for great setup flexibility and can result in a 30+ yard difference from day to day. This was the most difficult hole for the week in 2014.”

No. 17, 207 Yards, Par 3: “The 17th hole proved pivotal during the first two U.S. Opens played at Pinehurst No. 2. The putting green sits slightly below the tee and is very well protected by bunkers. A precise tee shot is a necessity.”

There are twelve Par 4’s at Pinehurst No. 2 with the majority (four) of those holes ranging between 450 and 500 yards. No. 13 is the shortest Par 4 listed at 381 yards with the longest being No. 16, playing 530 yards. In terms of scoring average, the toughest Par 4 on the course in 2014 was No. 16 (+0.341).

No. 16, 530 Yards, Par 4: “This hole was the most difficult of the par 4s in 2014 playing to a stroke average of 4.34. The putting green is open in the front such that a 2nd shot can be bounced onto the green, but a false front is present for the first 10 yards; a ball that doesn’t get past that measurement will trundle back off the putting surface.”

No. 18, 448 Yards, Par 4: “The home hole offers a demanding – some might say awkward – tee shot. The clubhouse is plainly in sight from the tee, but the drive zone is not. Players must negotiate the aiming bunker that sits into the hillside on the right, but if they bail out to the left, they are likely to run out of fairway and finish in the sandy natural area.”

There are two Par 5’s at Pinehurst No. 2, No. 5 & No. 10. They all played under par in 2014, despite being some of the longer par 5’s on Tour. The easiest hole on the course in 2014 was No. 5 with a scoring average of 4.80.

No. 5, 588 Yards, Par 5: “Another good chance to pick up a shot, or maybe two, as Martin Kaymer did in Round 3 on his way to the 2014 U.S. Open title! That said, miss this green left and it’s very easy to make a bogey or worse.”

No. 10, 617 Yards, Par 5: “Most players will play this as a three-shot hole. As a result, they will play their third shot with a wedge to the largest putting green on the golf course.”
