The US Open 2023 is about to begin on Thursday, June 15, at the North Course of the Los Angeles Country Club, California. The first edition was played in 1895 on a nine-hole course. With time, rules and formats changed, the winning sum increased, and the tournament witnessed several players reach greatness.

In the 122 editions of the US Open played so far, no golfer has won more than four times, unlike the other three majors, where at least one player has won five or more than five times.

Willie Anderson, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan, and Jack Nicklaus hold the record for most US Open wins. Hale Irwin and Tiger Woods are tied for second with three titles each. 16 golfers have won the event twice. Brooks Koepka, who won the US Open in 2017 and 2018, has a chance to claim the title for the third time as he enters the LACC as the favorite.
