2028 US Open Will Again Be Held At Mamaroneck's Winged Foot Golf Club

MAMARONECK, NY — The USGA announced on Monday that the Winged Foot Golf Club (West Course), in Mamaroneck, has been selected as the host site for the 2028 U.S. Open Championship.

"Winged Foot has provided the backdrop for some of the most dramatic moments in the history of our sport, with many of golf’s legendary champions being crowned on the club’s iconic West Course," USGA Chief of Championships John Bodenhamer said. "We strive to provide players with the greatest stages on which to compete for a national championship, and there are few stages as grand as Winged Foot."

Winged Foot features two 18-hole golf courses – the West and the East – both designed by A.W. Tillinghast and debuted in 1923. The championship will be contested on the West Course, which was renovated and restored in 2018 by Gil Hanse.

"Today is an incredible moment for all of us here at Winged Foot,” Winged Foot President Rob Williams said. "Our club has a long history of hosting this nation’s greatest men’s and women’s championships and we look forward to helping write another chapter in the story of our great sport in 2028."

Hosting the event will be record-setting for the elite Westchester club, but PGA historians said there will likely be more history made on the storied West Course.

The 128th U.S. Open will mark the seventh time the championship has been held at Winged Foot. It will also be the 14th USGA championship to be hosted by the club. During its 100-year history, the club has been the site of six U.S. Opens, two U.S. Amateurs, two U.S. Women’s Opens, one U.S. Senior Open, one U.S. Amateur Four-Ball and one Walker Cup Match. In addition, Winged Foot hosted the 1997 PGA Championship.

In the first U.S. Open at Winged Foot in 1929, amateur Bob Jones won his third U.S. Open title by defeating Al Espinosa in a 36-hole playoff by a resounding 23 strokes. Thirty years later, Billy Casper claimed the first of his two U.S. Open titles in the first edition of the competition contested over four days. In 1974, Hale Irwin captured the first of his three U.S. Open victories with a 72-hole score of 7-over-par 287.

In 1984, Fuzzy Zoeller won his lone U.S. Open title by defeating Greg Norman in an 18-hole playoff. Geoff Ogilvy posted a dramatic one-stroke victory over Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Colin Montgomerie in 2006. In the most recent U.S. Open at Winged Foot in 2020, Bryson DeChambeau was the only player under par as he registered a six-stroke victory in the first U.S. Open contested in September in 107 years.

In 2028, Winged Foot will match Baltusrol Golf Club, in Springfield, New Jersey, as the second-most visited U.S. Open host site. Oakmont Country Club, in Pennsylvania, has hosted the championship nine times, with its 10th scheduled for 2025. The 128th edition of the U.S. Open will be the 22nd held in New York, the most of any state.
