The top-10 finishers are exempt into next year’s U.S. Open and the top four finishers and ties receive invites to the 2027 Masters. … The field includes 36 players who competed in the most recent U.S. Open at Shinnecock in 2018. … Brooks Koepka, who won the 2018 U.S. Open at Shinnecock, plans to play despite withdrawing last weekend due to a hand injury. … Adam Scott is scheduled to make his 100th consecutive start in a major. … Jackson Koivun, the top-ranked amateur in the world, will make his professional debut next month at the John Deere Classic.
