The United States Golf Association (USGA) puts on the annual open golf tournament of the U.S. Unlike the Masters Championship, which is played at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia every year, the U.S. Open is played at a different venue from year to year. The longer-than-normal courses, high cut of Open rough, pinched fairways, and hilly greens makes play more difficult and this keeps scoring right around par. Last year’s U.S. Open was historical as Woods and Rocco Mediate tied after the last hole. They went on to play an 18-hole playoff, which again ended in an astonishing tie. The game went on to sudden death and Woods came away with the incredible victory. This nail-biting event could happen again this June and you can be there.
