Live updates from...
MILES ON THE MOVE
Amateur star Miles Russell, with Charlie Woods on his bag, is now leading in Florida. The teenager is on -8 with just two holes to play and looking good for a US Open spot!
BILLY IN POSITION
In Ohio, Billy Horschel has given himself a chance. He's back in the clubhouse in T4 with five places available. Tony Finau has two holes to find a birdie to join him there.
POOR WEATHER IN GEORGIA
At Hawks Ridge Golf Club in Georgia, Keith Mitchell leads the way over the closing holes. He's on the 15th of his second 18.
However, there is a problem. Lightning is in the area and there are questions over whether this one might not get finished until tomorrow.
BIG NAMES BATTLING IN OHIO
Things are coming to a head at Springfield Country Club in Ohio, where Zac Blair and Neal Shipley are clubhouse leaders at -8. Another big name in the mix is Billy Horschel, who is on the final hole in a tie for fourth. There are five places available.
NO LUCK FOR LUKE
In Florida, several players have withdrawn as the day has gone on. One notable name among them is Ian Poulter's son, Luke. He played 27 holes before deciding enough was enough, having largely struggled.
FORMER WINNER IN LINE FOR US OPEN RETURN
A former US Open winner is giving himself a chance at Del Paso Country Club in California. It's two decades since Geoff Ogilvy won the Major, while his last appearance in it was in 2016.
However, he's in tie for third at -3 after two holes of his second 18.
ALL EYES ON OHIO
At Springfield Country Club in Ohio, some big names have work ahead of them to ensure they make it.
Billy Horchel's one away with two holes left. Tony Finau and Brandt Snedeker are two more PGA Tour winners on that score, albeit with a couple more holes to make something happen.
BUBBLING AWAY NICELY IN CANADA
A string of top pros are looking good to qualify in Canada. Alejandro Tosti leads the way at -7, with Max McGreevy, Emiliano Grillo, William Mouw, Jordan Smith, John Parry and Patrick Fishburn in the other places to earn a place.
Matt Wallace is right behind them, as is Vince Whaley. Kris Ventura and Max Homa are also in contention.
All the players are at various stages of the second 18.
HOLMES NEARLY THERE
At Lakes Golf & Country Club in Ohio, JB Holmes is another who seems to be cruising to a US Open place. He's top of the leaderboard at -9 with just a couple of holes to play.
He last played in the US Open seven years ago.
Could J.B. Holmes be making his way back to the U.S. Open?The 44-year-old set himself up for a birdie look to get to -10 and a tie for the lead at the Westerville qualifier.A par has him in solid position should there be a playoff. pic.twitter.com/M7xMV8cpHqJune 8, 2026
WELL DONE, KEVIN!
Kevin Roy has booked his US Open place following two rounds of 67 at Century Country Club in New York. He reached the clubhouse on -8 to sit six above the cut line.
We'll probably enjoy a nice beer and hang out and enjoy it... and yeah we gotta Go Knicks."New York native Kevin Roy is in!Shinnecock will be his first U.S. Open start, just like his father Jim, who made two U.S. Open starts of his own. pic.twitter.com/TnCROzQBMKJune 8, 2026
PGA TOUR PRO WITHDRAWS IN CANADA
Thorbjorn Olesen is one player we know won't be making to through qualifying. He withdrew after falling behind quickly in Canada. He's playing in the RBC Canadian Open later in the week...
Great example of WDs and why it’s totally ok for them to WD.This Thorb Olesen withdrawing on 14 in Canada, he was +3. Leader is -5 already. He is playing Canadian Open and needs a good week. His choice is to grind thru the rest of the day or got get ready for RBC. pic.twitter.com/cTAT54k2k1June 8, 2026
HIGH SCHOOL TO A US OPEN SPOT?
Imagine having a shot at the US Open just two weeks after graduating from high school.
Jackson Ormond doesn't have to. He's living it, and currently faring well at Gaston Country Club in North Carolina.
In fact, with just six of his 36 holes to play, he's leading at -12!
Jackson Ormond graduated high school two weeks ago…he’s currently sitting in first place at -11 with 7 holes to play at the Gastonia, NC final qualifying site for the US Open ⛳️ #GolfsLongestDay @GatorsGolf @usopengolf pic.twitter.com/WlwPjFfjBpJune 8, 2026
PUTNAM BROTHERS PLAYING IN OREGON
At Emerald Valley Golf Club in Oregon, brothers Andrew and Michael Putnam are playing. Andrew has a PGA Tour win, while Michael has Korn Ferry Tour wins to his name.
Both remain in contention at the moment, with Andrew the closest to the cut line, just one below it.
HOT KOHLES
24 hours after winning the BMW Charity Pro-Am on the Korn Ferry Tour, Ben Kohles is at it again!
He's competing at Woodmont Country Club, where he's second behind Jackson Suber chasing one of four places.
AMATEURS LEADING THE WAY IN FLORIDA
Ryder Cowan is a senior at Oklahoma, and he's looking good for a US Open spot in Florida. He's tied at the top with another amateur, Giuseppi Puebla, who's second behind Miles Russell in the AJGA rankings.
ZAC ON THE ATTACK
Zac Blair doesn't usually miss the mark at Springfield Country Club. He's qualified for the US Open three times, and he's set to do it again.
He leads the way at -8 for one of five qualifying spots.
FATHER AND SON
Six-time PGA Tour winner Bill Haas is playing at Gaston Country Club in North Carolina.

LOOKING GOOD FOR SHIPLEY
One player who is no stranger to making an impact at a Major is Neal Shipley, who was The Masters low amateur in 2024.
He's competing at Springfield Country Club in Ohio, where he's T4 hoping to claim one of five places.
Shipley, who also finished T24 at the 2024 US Open, is well into his second round, with just five holes to play.
WHIRLWIND WEEKEND
Amateur Davis Baxter was an alternate, only finding out he was in the Maryland qualifier on Saturday while officiating a wedding! He's on +5 at the moment and set to miss out, but what a 72 hours for the player!
Davis Baxter was officiating a wedding in Hilton Head Island and got the call Saturday night he was in today’s @usopengolf Final Qualifier in Maryland.Drove home to Charlotte w/wife, got to MD Sun night at 10:50pm, and arrived at the course at 630am!https://t.co/swGfHPMP0s pic.twitter.com/V1n0DTUfu1June 8, 2026
FAMILIAR FACE CADDYING FOR RUSSELL
One interesting story today is the caddie teenage prodigy Miles Russell has at the BallenIsles Country Club qualifier in Florida - none other than Charlie Woods!
Russell is T3 at the moment in a qualifier with four spots available.
ALL TO PLAY FOR IN CANADA
The course with the most US Open places available is Lambton Golf and Country Club in Canada, with six.
The leader is Emiliano Grillo, and he's currently in his second round at -8. Others currently above the cut line include Jordan Smith, Lanto Griffin and Max McGreevy.
Matt Wallace and Max Homa are among the pros just the wrong side of it.
NOT JUST THE TOUR PROS...
Of course, one of the most endearing elements of Golf's Longest Day is the amateurs trying to reach the US Open.
A year ago, dentist Matt Vogt made headlines by qualifying. Hopefully, there will be similar stories as the evening progresses.
BIG NAMES IN CONTENTION
Even at this relatively early stage, there are some big names near the top of leaderboards.
Emiliano Grillo leads the way after the first 18 at the one event in Canada. In the US, PGA Tour pros including Tony Finau, Michael Thorbjornsen, Andrew Putnam, Max Greyserman and Keith Mitchell are all faring well too.
43 PLACES AVAILABLE
Golf's Longest Day is one of the most beloved days in the game (for fans, at least) as hundreds of players at locations around the US and Canada try to bag a spot at the US Open.
In total, there are 43 places up for grabs. However, one player who didn't need to compete in the grueling 36-hole marathon today is JT Poston, with his place guaranteed after winning the Memorial Tournament.
For his sake, it's a good job, too, because not only did he need to play all the final round and two extra holes on Sunday, he also had to complete his third round.
A well-earned day off for him, then, but for others, there's plenty of golf to play in the quest to get to Shinnecock Hills.
WELCOME TO GOLF'S LONGEST DAY!
