The 2024 US Open is the third men's major of the year and yet another PGA Tour event of the calendar year to offer an open qualifying.
US Open qualifying is a two-stage process, with local qualifying sites around the country and then a second stage known as final qualifying (formerly sectional qualifying). Final qualifying determines the players who earn US Open spots, with 44 spots on the line in total.
The USGA allocates approximately 50 spots in the field for qualifiers, with 156 total players in the field. The tournament is played this year at Pinehurst No. 2 in Pinehurst, North Carolina.
Qualifiers are open to any professionals or players with a USGA handicap index of 1.4 or lower, and they must enter by the April deadline. There are 13 total final qualifying sites, with 10 in the United States and Canada. There are three overseas qualifiers which are played ahead of the final qualifying day in North America.
Two alternates are decided at each site, and they are added to the US Open alternate list, which the USGA uses to fill the field based on unfilled exemptions and withdrawals. The ordering of the players on the list is unclear, but it is based on strength of field in each final qualifier.
For the 2024 US Open, each hosting association runs the tournament on behalf of the USGA.
The last open qualifier to win on the PGA Tour is Corey Conners, who won the 2019 Valero Texas Open after Monday qualifying.Orville Moody was the last player to win the US Open after advancing through local qualifying, winning the US Open in 1969.
