Written by Staff
The U.S. Open Championship represents the essence of meritocracy in professional sports. Any professional or amateur with a 0.4 handicap index or lower can sign up to compete for a spot at the U.S. Open. This year’s 125th U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club is set for June 12-15.
While a few dozen players will qualify for the U.S. Open via various exemption categories, others can chase a spot at Oakmont via two stages of qualifying.
Local Qualifying (18 holes) was contested across 110 sites in late April and early May. Players who advance from the local stage will compete at Final Qualifying (36 holes in one day), which is contested across 13 sites in late May and early June. Some players are directly exempt into Final Qualifying via various exemption categories. The USGA accepted a record 10,202 entries for the 2025 U.S. Open.
This file will be updated with more information as U.S. Open qualifiers are finalized.
