Eight Georgia golfers competing in the U.S. Open

Eight former University of Georgia golfers (most of any college) are competing in the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2

Eight Georgia Bulldog golfers are competing in the 2024 U.S. Open, which will be held from June 13-16. The U.S. Open is the third major of the year and is being held at the famous Pinehurst No. 2 course in Pinehurst, North Carolina.

Eight former Georgia golfers are among the U.S. Open’s 156-man field, which means that over five percent of the field in the U.S. Open played collegiate golf at the University of Georgia. Georgia has more golfers competing on the PGA Tour than any other college program.

Brian Harman’s victory of The Open Championship in 2023 marks the last time a former UGA player on the PGA Tour won a major. Chris Kirk, who won The Sentry in January, is the only former Georgia golfer to win on the PGA Tour this year.

Scottie Schleffer is considered the favorite for the U.S. Open. Schleffer has five wins this season including The Masters.
