Major winners, budding college stars and Soboba Shootout winners.

Golf’s Longest Day delivered its traditional array of up-and-comers, surprises, veterans and inspired reactions after qualifying for the United States Open.

Even better, the marathon 36-hole qualifyings across the United States wrapped without anyone needing to return Tuesday morning thanks to no major weather issues. The only drama occurred when raw emotions poured out from journeymen and their family, friends and caddies who were part of a dream to reach the U.S. Open first tee next Thursday.

Monday’s ten qualifyings by the numbers:

  • 687: Golfers

  • 44: Spots available

  • 9: Amateurs to qualify

  • 46: Oldest qualifier, Jim Herman

  • 20: Youngest qualifer, Wells Williams

  • 14: Straight U.S. Open’s for 2012 champion Webb Simpson

  • 2 of 17: LIV golfers to advance


Cherry Hill Club, Ridgeway, Ontario, Canada

Conducted by Golf Canada - Monday, June 3, 2024

66 players competing for 7 spots

Mark Hubbard posted a course record-tying 63 after a morning 64(!) to take medalist honors by three over Adam Svensson. This will be Hubbard’s second U.S. Open after a missed cut in 2020.
