The whole of the golfing world, including the players, fans, golf members, press and media are all furious at the USGA. The US open was a shambles and this is exactly why.
Matt Fitzpatrick did not hold back in an interview about the US open and the US open atmosphere. We recently saw wyndham clark win the us open but rickie fowler and rory mcilroy came very close. But why was there so little golf members, golf fans and people at the us open?! This breaking news golf story will tell you exactly why!
THE GOLFING WORLD IS TOTALLY FURIOUS at the USGA AND SO AM I!! I was so shocked when i found out the truth as to why the US open had hardly any golf fans during the spectacle. There are so many major golf tournaments across the golfing calendar, including the masters, the open, the us open.. why was there hardly any golfers there!
What did you think of the us open, the us open highlights, the golfers, the us open play? Let me know in the comments section of this youtube golf video.

I bet you agree with this…
A couple years ago I got a free last minute ticket to the Honda classic and it still cost me over $100 with parking, food, water, soda and a hat.
Did they buy up all the tickets to limit the amount of spectators , or did they buy up all the available tickets that just didn’t get sold?
I mean the only people left living in COMMIE CALIFORNIA would rather complain about golf than enjoy it.
It was in LA. I'm surprised anyone attended.
Gross overstatement warning: "The Whole Of The Golfing World?" Atmosphere? Puhleeze… Who GAF about atmosphere. The golf play was GREAT and THAT'S ALL that mattered. You want "atmosphere" to enjoy the (any) sport? Go hang at a bar with your buddies. I'll gladly take the relaxing golf. Wondering: Are you the tool always shouting the old and tired, "get in the hole", comment at every tourney? Hmmmm….
I love your passion. Welcome to LA. What's you're handicap? 😉
For me, I normally attend at least two majors a year, but I will not go to any event that includes LIV players. Simple for me.
Golf isn't even a real sport 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 It's a GAME of skill 😂😂😂😂😂
Worst U.S. Open I have ever seen….what happened?
Because it's la everybody wants to be treated special and be in a tent drink and schmooze and ignore the event. Only peons pay for general admission in LA. This is the city where people show up at a Kings game during the second, leave 3 minutes into the Third, then go to a Dodgers game for four innings, then head off to dinner. I would have gone but I wasn't paying the ticket price. Was totally unaware of the fact that I probably couldn't get a ticket. I remember going to the Buick at Torrey Pines in 99 and 2000 and it was free we walked right on. Hell I made a hundred bucks in 2000 carrying a bag during the Pro-Am! I didn't go because I can spend my money better than that. For 155 I Golf all month during weekdays at my 3 county courses. So I skipped the traffic, all of the pretentious douchebags and improved my game. Torrey should have had it again over LACC.
I agree 100%! With everything going on in the golf world now it looks like they would pay more attention to detail and have the best venue imaginable.
I'm so tired of hearing "get in the hole"
In my opinion Majors should be best viewed Saturday and Sunday afternoon and not end at 23:00.
Learn from the Canadian Open that was played the week before the US Open.
There aren’t that many smart people left in California anymore
$300 for general admission is a snip of a price compared to 2043 when prices will reach $3000 due to inflation.
It was a corporate event…like the Super Bowl!
Money talks, BS walks, that's why. Business as usual !!
It’s LA. What did the USGA expect?
IMO The play is boring as well as the players. No personalities. The professionals look like they're spit out of a vending machine…all the same. The players are boring and homogeneous. LPGA is a much better viewing product now. PGA sucks no matter where they play.
Merion (outside Philadelphia) is a very short course as well and the talk all week was “Is this course too short for players today? Justin Rose won the US Open at 1 over! A course does not need to be long to be a challenge to the players
They used millions of gallons of water to get this course ready in a place where they are RUNNING OUT OF WATER! Where were the green crazy people protesting??? Not to mention it's Kalifornia. One of the worst places on earth.
golf is an awful sport to watch in person.
The tee times were bizarre.
Its CA what do you expect
I was there. It was crowded. The course was awesome. There was definitely atmosphere. I paid $300 per ticket. Definitely worth the experience.
There has been a mass exodus of your typical golf fan from California, particularly San Francisco primarily, and then Los Angeles (pronounced AngelIs, not AngelEES)
mic gain is 3 dB too hot.
Gotta love la they act like it's some great place and its literally a 3rd world shithole lmao
Reason #1 no tiger lol
Dude you are boring me !!!
Lemme guess, you weren’t there? Having attended this it was very easy to get around, and local accommodations were accessible and easy. While it may not have looked sexy on TV, it was a challenging course and convenient to go from one hole to another or stay in one area and see continuous action.
As a whole, the players are a bunch of whiny babies and entitled brats!! Of course, just going to California sucks anyway!!
You Left Out The Ticket Price
What is it you don't understand it's California..it's just not sports it's the mentality..go deeper the answer in view.
I was mostly upset that Mickelson didn't get his chance at putting a ball in motion on ridiculously fast greens.
Wanna reply later when I wake up?
This has been my issue with Wimbledon. The final (in Australia) starts at 10pm!! Who would have a major tournament kicking off in the middle of the night??
You answered your own question. Too small of a course for double the people they had. Also replay the people running towards the golfers on 18 at the end of the match. That wasn’t safe. Thanks
I agree with you except on the time difference. It is the US Open championship not the Open. I do not see why the tournament should not be held in the western part of the US because it is to much of a time difference for the UK. I record the Open so I can watch when it is convenient for me and I thought others would do the same.
Well when the PGA Tour bends the knee for LIV, who wants to watch golf anymore. Drama queens. I rather watch re-runs of NFL Football from 10 years ago. Professional golf has fallen..
Worst there ever was and the question is why?
