The 20 Courses That Have Produced The Most Holes-In-One At The U.S. Open

There had been 53 holes-in-one recorded in the history of the U.S. Open when the tournament got underway at Oakmont in 2025, and Victor Perez was responsible for the 54th when he got one during his second round on Friday. However, that course has some catching up to do when it comes to the venues that have produced the most aces during the major.

53 different golf courses have hosted the U.S. Open since Newport Country Club served as the backdrop for the first and only time when the inaugural edition was played there all the way back in 1895.

However, there are only 20 where at least one player has been able to record a hole-in-one during the tournament, and here’s a look at every single one ranked by the number of aces they’ve produced over the years.

It’s worth noting that the PGA of America doesn’t list specific holes for some of the older holes-in-one, but I did what I could to supplement those oversights with some research of my own; if it’s not listed, I failed in that quest.

Pebble Beach: 8

Pebble Beach boasts one of the most iconic holes on the planet in the form of the par-3 7th that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. However, the 5th hole has been responsible for the lion’s share of the holes-in-one at the U.S. Open.

• Jerry McGee (5th hole, 1972)
• Bobby Mitchell (5th hole, 1972)
• Johnny Miller (12th hole, 1982)
• Bill Brodell (5th hole, 1982)
• Tom Weiskopf (7th hole, 1982)
• Todd Fischer (7th hole, 2000)
• Thongchai Jaidee (5th hole, 2010)
• Rory Sabatini (12 hole, 2010)

Baltusrol: 6

Baltusrol was first tapped to host the U.S. Open in 1903 and most recently did so for the seventh time in 1993 (it has been the home of two PGA Championships since then). As you can see, aces were fairly plentiful during that run.

• Zell Eaton (10th hole, 1936)
• Dick Chapman (1954, the first amateur to get one at the U.S. Open)
• Johnny Weitzel (1954)
• Tom Watson (4th hole, 1980)
• Mike Hulbert (12th hole, 1993)
• Sandy Lyle (12th hole, 1993)

Oak Hill: 5

Oak Hill has only hosted the U.S. Open three times, and it shows up as high as it does thanks to the absurd scene we were treated to in Rochester during the second round in 1989 when four players took advantage of the 6th hole that was playing 159 yards that day.

• Billy Kuntz (11th hole, 1956)
• Doug Weaver (6th hole,  1989)
• Mark Wiebe (6th hole, 1989)
• Jerry Pate (6th hole, 1989)
• Nick Price (6th hole, 1989)

Pinehurst No. 2: 4

Pinehurst No. 2 is a relative newcomer when it comes to the U.S. Open, as it hosted the event for the first time in 1999. The 9th hole has emerged as a bit of a hole-in-one haven, as it’s the only one where players have gotten an ace.

• Peter Jacobsen (9th hole, 2005)
• Zach Johnson (9th hole, 2014)
• Sepp Straka (9th hole 2024)
• Francesco Molinari (9th hole, 2024)

Winged Foot: 4

Winged Foot has four par-3 holes (two on the front nine and two on the back), and the 13th (known as the “White Mule”) is the only one where a player has yet to record a hole-in-one during the six occasions it’s hosted the U.S. Open since 1929.

• Mark McCumber (10th hole, 1984)
• Peter Hedblom (3rd hole, 2006)
•  Patrick Reed (7th hole, 2020)
• Will Zalatoris (7th hole, 2020)

Bethpage Black: 3

All of the holes-in-one that have been recorded at Bethpage Black came when it hosted the tournament for the first time in 2002 (2009 was the second and most recent), and all of them were made on different holes.

• Shigeki Maruyama (14th hole, 2002)
• Andy Miller (3rd hole, 2002)
• Scott Hoch (17th hole, 2002)

Los Angeles Country Club: 3

Los Angeles Country Club is the most recent newcomer of any U.S. Open course, as it hosted the tournament for the very first time in 2023. It will return there in 2031, and we’ll have to wait and see if players will be able to replicate the success they had on the 15th hole.

• Sam Burns (15th hole, 2023)
• Matthieu Pavon (15th hole, 2023)
• Matt Fitzpatrick (15th hole, 2023)

Cherry Hills: 2

There are eight courses that have produced exactly two aces at the U.S. Open, and I’m going to list them in alphabetical order.

We’re kicking things off with Cherry Hills, which hosted the U.S Open three times (1938, 1960, and 1978) and saw its only two holes-in-one come on the same hole in the last one.

• Bobby Wadkins (15th hole, 1978)
• Tom Weiskopf (15th hole, 1978)

Hazeltine: 2

Hazeltine played host to the major in 1970 and 1991, and the 4th hole was responsible for both of the aces that were recorded at what was presumably its last U.S. Open.

• John Inman (4th hole, 1991)
• Fuzzy Zoeller (4th hole, 1991)

Inverness: 2

It’s also been a while since Inverness welcomed the U.S. Open, as it was held at Byron Nelson’s home course in Ohio four times between 1920 and 1979. Gary Player made 36 holes-in-one during his career, but the only one he had during a major came there.

• Leo Diegel (13th hole, 1931)
• Gary Player (3rd hole, 1979)

Medinah: 2

Medinah was tapped for the U.S. Open in 1949, 1975, and 1990, and its inaugural duty was the only time someone didn’t have a hole-in-one.

• Pat Fitzsimmons (2nd hole, 1975)
• Jay Don Blake (8th hole, 1990)

Oakmont: 2

Oakmont has hosted the U.S. Open on more occasions than any course, as 2025 marks the tenth time the major has headed there. However, as I mentioned above, only one golfer had gotten a hole-in-one there during the tournament before the second man here earned his spot on this list.

• Scott Simpson (16th hole, 1983)
• Victor Perez (6th hole, 2025)

The Olympic Club: 2

The U.S. Open has headed to The Olympic Club in San Francisco five times, but it’s only produced a couple of aces—both of which transpired on the same hole. 

• Chris Perry (13th hole, 1998)
• John Peterson (13th hole, 2012)

Shinnecock Hills: 2

Shinnecock Hills is also a five-time U.S. Open host that’s only spawned a couple of holes-in-one, although they came on two different holes.

• Gary Hallberg (7th hole, 1995)
• Spencer Levin (17th hole, 2014)

Southern Hills: 2

Southern Hills is the last course that has produced exactly two holes-in-one, both of which came when it hosted the U.S. Open for the third time in 2001.

• Phil Mickelson (6th hole, 2001)
• Olin Browne (11th hole, 2001)

The Country Club

There are currently five courses where a single hole-in-one has been recorded at the U.S. Open—including The Country Club, which has hosted it four times since 1913.

• Cameron Young (6th hole, 2022)

Merion: 1

The U.S. Open has taken place at Merion five times, but holes-in-one have been very elusive at the course where there’s only been a single one during the tournament—one that was recorded nearly 80 years after it was initially played there.

•  Shawn Stefani (17th hole, 2013)

Oakland Hills: 1

Oakland Hills is another U.S. Open course where holes-in-one are hard to come by, as it’s been the site of the major six times while only producing one.

• Ben Crenshaw (9th hole, 1985)

Philadelphia Cricket Club: 1

We’re closing things out with a couple of throwbacks, as the oldest country club in the United States hosted the U.S. Open in 1907 and 1910 while producing the lone ace that was also the first one in the major’s history.

• Jack Hobens (10th hole, 1907)

 

Skokie: 1

Illinois’ Skokie Country Club welcomed the U.S. Open for the first and only time in 1922, and there was a single hole-in-one during the tournament where Gene Sarazen got the victory.

• Eddie Townes (10th hole, 1922)
