U.S. Open: Full field and prize money on offer at Shinnecock Hills

U.S. Open 2026: Take a look at the 156-man field for the third men's major of the year and the prize purse on offer at Shinnecock Hills.

The world's best male golfers have descended upon New York for the 2026 U.S. Open

The third men's major of the year is being staged at famed Shinnecock Hills for the first time since 2018. 

Back then, Brooks Koepka claimed the gold medal and at that time it was hard to envision the American not adding multiple majors to his haul. 

But injuries have curtailed Koeka's career somewhat and there is a new sheriff in town called Scottie Scheffler.

Scheffler, 29, is attempting to complete the career grand slam this week on his first attempt. 

The victory would see Scheffler join Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Gene Sarazen and Rory McIlroy in the record books. 

There are plenty of other notables in the 156-man field who will believe they have every chance of toppling Scheffler, including the reigning champion J.J. Spaun.

Spaun pipped Scotland's Robert MacIntyre to the title 12 months ago with a hard-fought win on a soaked Oakmont. 

The American needed only a par to win coming down the 18th, but sank a 64-foot putt on the 72nd hole to win by two and spark wild celebratory scenes. 

Spaun banked a cool $4.3m from the $21.5m purse.

This year's champion is likely to receive a similar figure, though tournament organisers confirm those details later in the week.
