The US Open (officially US Open Championship ) is after the Open Championship , the second oldest of the four major - golf tournaments .
history
It was first played on October 4, 1895 in Newport , Rhode Island . After four rounds, England- born Horace Rawlins won .
mode
The US Open is played on different courses every June. The final day is the third Sunday of the month. Professionals and amateurs alike can compete in a number of qualifying tournaments. A number of players are also automatically qualified: the winners of the last ten years, the winners of the other major tournaments of the last five years, the top 30 of the USPGA Money List and also the US amateur champions.
In the event of a tie after four rounds, unlike the other majors, a jump-off over an entire round (18 holes) will be carried out on the following day (Monday) to determine the winner.
Other major golf tournaments, besides the US Open and the Open Championship , are the US Masters and the PGA Championships .
