2021 US Open Information

 

US OPEN RETURNS TO TORREY PINES

One of the PGA Tour’s four major championships returns to San Diego!

The 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines had it all. It was the first major championship golf event in San Diego, shining the spotlight on the county’s most-revered course, Torrey Pines Golf Course. Hopes were high for a successful event. What transpired was one of golf’s most epic showdowns, forever cementing Torrey Pines’ place among the world’s elite course.

It took a clutch putt and an 18-hole Monday playoff to clinch what many consider Tiger Woods’ greatest major championship performance. The battle against legend Rocco Mediate was one for the ages, punctuated by news that Tiger played through a broken leg to claim the title.

AND NOW IT WILL HAVE A SEQUEL

The United States Golf Association awarded Torrey Pines in La Jolla its long-awaited second U.S. Open, slated for 2021.

We’ll continue to update this information as it becomes available but for now is just a future reminder of the return of one of the PGA Tour’s four major championships to the sunny shores of San Diego.

Total attendance for the 2008 Open was 295,000. The 2021 event should see similar attendance so plan your trip to the Open early.

As is standard for Opens, the course will be closed during the tournament and the week of preparation prior. Fortunately for visiting golfers who want to squeeze in a few rounds during those two weeks, San Diego has abundant options, with over 90 golf courses in the county. Call 1-800-TorreyPines to speak with one of our local golf coordinators.
