2026 U.S. Open Course: Shinnecock Hills

Shinnecock Hills, on Long Island in New York, is one of the historic golf clubs in America and one of the five founding clubs of the USGA. The second-ever U.S. Open took place at Shinnecock Hills in 1896. It took 90 years before the tournament returned, but Shinnecock Hills has been among the common U.S. Open sites since the 1980s.

The links-style golf course — arguably the most-authentic links in America — was redesigned by William Flynn in 1937. Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore led a restoration in 2013.
