UNDATED (AP) – Pennsylvania golf courses already have hosted 88 USGA championships and more are on the way. The USGA identified Oakmont as one of its anchor sites for the U.S. Open. The course outside Pittsburgh already has had a record nine U.S. Opens. It had already been announced as the 2025 host and will get three more through 2049, along with two U.S. Women’s Opens. Merion outside Philadelphia was awarded two U.S. Opens and two U.S. Women’s Opens. The USGA now has Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina and Oakmont as anchor sites for a rotation of U.S. Open venues. Pebble Beach, Shinnecock Hills and Winged Foot are in discussions to join them.
