When the average person is asked to think about a golfing event, they will think of the US Open. It’s easy to see why.

History of the US Open
Golf is far from being a new sport, and the first US Open was held in 1895, taking place on October 4, at the Newport Country Club in Newport, Rhode Island. The competition had 36 holes and was completed in a single day by ten professionals and one amateur.
At the time of writing, the golfers who have won the most US Opens to date are Willie Anderson, Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan, and Jack Nicklaus, each winning four times each. Unsurprisingly, world-famous golfer Tiger Woods is not far behind, having won three times.
