The 2023 US Open is set to begin at Los Angeles Country Club in Los Angeles, California. The PGA Tour’s third major event of the season will return to the West Coast, where LACC will provide a unique layout compared to traditional major events, with a few elongated par 3 holes and wider fairways. Of course, the par 70 track, which is a first-time US Open host venue, has thick rough, which is a signature at major events, and some areas of LACC will be unforgiving with errant tee shots and approach shots.
We’ve seen Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka win the first two majors this year, with Rahm surging late at The Masters to claim his first green jacket and outright win at Augusta National. Koepka was in the mix at Augusta until he fell flat in the final round, but he kept his foot on the pedal at the PGA Championship as the LIV golfer looks to add his third US Open win since 2017.
