Amateur and professional golfers across the country flocked to 10 different sites this week for U.S. Open final qualifying – known annually as Golf’s Longest Day – and one of the biggest stories from this year’s 36-hole Marathon Monday was the presence of LIV Golf League players in the fields.
An easy way for players to qualify for major championships is via their Official World Golf Ranking. Seeing as events for the upstart circuit backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund currently don’t offer OWGR points, LIV players have plummeted in the ranking, forcing them to qualify for the third men’s major of the season the hard way.
Of the 19 players entered in a final qualifier, just four (in bold) punched their ticket. One didn’t finish, one withdrew and another didn’t even show up. Here’s how LIV golfers fared in final qualifying for the 2023 U.S. Open, June 15-18, at Los Angeles Country Club.
