The tournament will have a field of 156 golfers. About two-thirds of those golfers will get into the field via various exemption categories (such as winners of previous majors, world rankings, LPGA money and so on). The remaining players will earn spots in the tournament through the 36-hole qualifying tournaments (at 25-30 sites, most but not all in the United States) the USGA stages in the months leading up to the tournament.

2028 U.S. Women's Open Golf Course: Oakmont

Oakmont Country Club is the host course for the 2028 U.S. Women's Open. It is in western Pennsylvania, the course split by the Pennsylvania Turkpike and home to the famous "church pew" bunkers. Oakmont, which dates to 1903, is famous as one of the most difficult golf courses in the world, with its dense, heavy rough and lightning-fast putting surfaces.

Oakmont has hosted the U.S. Women's Open twice before (years and winners):

• 2010: Paula Creamer, 281
• 1992: Patty Sheehan, 280

Creamer won the 2010 U.S. Women's Open by four strokes over runners-up Suzann Pettersen and Na Yeon Choi. In the 1992 U.S. Women's Open, Sheehan defeated Juli Inkster in an 18-hole playoff, 72 to 74.

For the USWO in 2010, Oakmont was set up to play 6,568 yards, with a par of 71.

Oakmont has been the site of more USGA championships and major championships than almost any other club, including a record 10 U.S. Opens. Here is that roster of tournaments and champions:

• 2025 U.S. Open: J.J. Spaun, 279
• 2021 U.S. Amateur: James Piot
• 2016 U.S. Open: Dustin Johnson, 276
• 2007 U.S. Open: Angel Cabrera, 285
• 2003 U.S. Amateur: Nick Flanagan
• 1994 U.S. Open: Ernie Els, 279
• 1983 U.S. Open: Larry Nelson, 280
• 1978 PGA Championship: John Mahaffey, 276
• 1973 U.S. Open: Johnny Miller, 279
• 1969 U.S. Amateur: Steve Melnyk, 286
• 1962 U.S. Open: Jack Nicklaus, 283
• 1953 U.S. Open: Ben Hogan, 283
• 1951 PGA Championship: Sam Snead
• 1938 U.S. Amateur: Willie Turnesa
• 1935 U.S. Open: Sam Parks Jr., 299
• 1927 U.S. Open: Tommy Armour, 301
• 1925 U.S. Amateur: Bobby Jones
• 1922 PGA Championship: Gene Sarazen
• 1919 U.S. Amateur: Davidson Herron

It is arguable which is the most-famous U.S. Open at Oakmont. Ben Hogan won the last of his four U.S. Open titles at Oakmont, and Jack Nicklaus won the first of his four U.S. Open titles here (beating Arnold Palmer in a playoff). And 1973 was the year of Johnny Miller's final-round 63 to win, the first 63 ever scored in a major.
