The 2025 U.S. Open tees off on Thursday in Pennsylvania. The annual event is one of the biggest on golf's calendar and a major title every player wants to win. Unlike the Masters and like the other three majors, the U.S. Open is at a different course every year. What follows is a look at the future sites for the tournament moving forward.

2025 U.S. Open Course

In 2025, the U.S. Open will return to Oakmont Country Club. The club is located in Plum, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh. It will be the 10th time Oakmont has hosted the event, the most of any course.

Oakmont got its first U.S. Open in 1927, when Tommy Armour beat Harry Cooper in an 18-hole playoff after both finished at +13. Armour finished the playoff +4, while Cooper was +7 despite being even after nine holes.

Sam Parks Jr. won in 1935 by two strokes at +11. In 1953, Ben Hogan finished at -5, beating defending champion Sam Snead by six strokes. Jack Nicklaus won in 1962 in a legendary playoff over Arnold Palmer. Johnny Miller beat John Schlee by one stroke in 1973. Larry Nelson finished at -4 in 1983, holding off Tom Watson by a stroke.

In 1994, Ernie Els won a three-way playoff over Colin Montgomerie and Loren Roberts that wound up going 20 holes. In 2007, Angel Cabrera won his first major, edging both Tiger Woods and Jim Furyk by one stroke. In 2016, Dustin Johnson won his first major, finishing -4 and topping Furyk by three strokes.

2026 U.S. Open Course — Shinnecock Hills Golf Club

In 2026, the U.S. Open will head back to New York, taking place at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. Shinnecock has hosted the U.S. Open five times, including the second-ever U.S. Open in 1896. But after that appearance, the tournament didn't return until 1986. Since then it has been in regular rotation, hosting in 1995, 2004 and 2018.

In 1896, James Foulis won a cool $150 for shooting 152 over two rounds and beating his closest competition Horace Rawlins by three strokes. In 1986, Raymond Floyd posted a four-round score of -1 to best Chip Beck and Lanny Wadkins by two strokes. During the 1995 U.S. Open, Corey Pavin won his only major, as he shot a 68 on the final day to breeze past Greg Norman by two strokes after Norman shot a 73 in the fourth round.

Retief Goosen won the 2004 tournament, beating Ernie Ells and Phil Mickelson by two strokes in one of Mickelson's six second-place finishes at the U.S. Open. In 2018, Brooks Koepka defended his 2017 U.S. Open title, finishing +1 and edging Tommy Fleetwood (+2) and Dustin Johnson (+3).

Shinnecock will continue to be in the U.S. Open's plans, as it will host the tournament again in 2036.

2027 U.S. Open Course — Pebble Beach Golf Links

In 2027, the U.S. Open will return to one of the most iconic courses in golf as Pebble Beach will host the even for the seventh time. Pebble has been in the tournament's rotation since 1972 and has yet to disappoint.

Jack Nicklaus took him his third U.S. Open title in 1972 at Pebble, topping the field by three strokes in a wire-to-wire win. In 1982, Tom Watson beat Nicklaus by two strokes to win his only U.S. Open crown. At the 1992 U.S. Open, third round leader Gil Morgan struggled on Sunday, shooting +5 and allowing Tom Kite to take command and win his only major title.

In 2000, Tiger Woods demolished the field, shooting -12 and beating his closest competition by 15 strokes in a wire-to-wire win. It was arguably his greatest major performance and his first U.S. Open title.

In 2010, Graeme McDowell won his only major at Pebble, finishing at even par and beating Gregory Havret (+1) and Ernie Ells (+2). At the 2019 U.S. Open, Gary Woodland shocked the golf world by shooting -13 and topping a leaderboard that included Koepka, Jon Rahm, Justin Rose and Rory McIlroy among others. It marked Woodland's first major win and is still his only top five finish in a major.

Pebble Beach will be heavily featured in the U.S. Open rotation moving forward. It is scheduled to host the tournament in 2027, 2032, 2037 and 2044.

2028 U.S. Open Course — Winged Foot Golf Club, West Course

In 2028, the U.S. Open will return to Winged Foot Golf Club's West Course in Mamaroneck, N.Y. It will be the course's seventh time hosting the tournament.

In 1929, Bobby Jones won his third U.S. Open title after a 36-hole playoff, beating Al Espinosa by 23 strokes and finishing +6. Thirty years later, the tournament returned to Winged Foot, where Billy Casper won his first major a tight battle with runner-up Bob Rosburg. Casper finished +2 to beat Rosburg by one stroke.

The 1974 U.S. Open at Winged Foot was famous for the incredibly high scores. Dubbed the "Massacre at Winged Foot" the cut for the weekend was +13. Hale Irwin won the first of his three U.S. Open titles that year, finishing +7. In 1984 the tournament was back and featured far lower scores. Fuzzy Zoeller finished -4 and beat Greg Norman in an 18-hole playoff to win his first U.S. Open and second major title.

Winged Foot hosted again in 2006 as Australian Geoff Ogilvy won his lone major in one of the craziest finishes in major championship history. Ogilvy chipped in for par on the 17th and made par on the 18th to beat Jim Furyk, Colin Montgomerie and Phil Mickelson by one stroke after all three failed to make par on 18. Mickelson, in the final pairing, double-bogeyed the final hole to lose the tournament.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 U.S. Open was held in September for the first time with Winged Foot as the host. Bryson DeChambeau dominated the final round to win his first major by six strokes over Matthew Wolff.
