Tournament: The 123rd United States Open, June 15-18, 2023
Course: Los Angeles Country Club (North Course), 7,421 yards, par 70. A scant dozen blocks from Rodeo Drive and Beverly Hills.
Purse: I’m having trouble finding the exact numbers. 2022 US Open had a total purse of $17.5 million, with $3.15 million to the winner. Expect it to be the same or higher.
Defending Champ: Matt Fitzpatrick. The UK born and Northwestern educated golfer had himself a weekend, shooting 68-68 (and the only one in the top 5 to be under par both days).
