The 2023 U.S. Open is so so so CLOSE (at least when we wrote this, when there were three players within one shot of each other on the leaderboard heading to the final round at Los Angeles Country Club, with another three strokes back).
So if you’re here, you’re probably wondering: What’s the playoff format should extra holes be necessary to declare a winner?
We have an answer: Nope, it won’t take an extra full round of 18 holes. Instead: Two holes will be played and total strokes will decide the winner. If there’s still a tie? It goes to sudden death until a winner gets decided.
There you have it.
