One of the most prestigious events coming to New York in the near future is the 2018 U.S. Open. The United States Golf Association selected Southampton's Shinnecock Hills Golf Club to host the annual golf tournament, which will take place from June 14 to 17. It is the fifth time the course has been chosen to host the event and the first time since 2004, when Retief Goosen won his second U.S. Open title with a two-stroke victory over Phil Mickelson. Other players to win the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills include Corey Pavin, Raymond Floyd, and James Foulis, who won the second U.S. Open in 1896. The 2018 tournament will mark the 19th time the U.S. Open will be played in the state of New York.
Shinnecock Hills originally opened in 1891 and was the first 18-hole course on the East Coast. Additionally, it was America's first golf clubhouse complete with a grill room as well as a locker room and showers.
