Jason Scrivener joins four other Australasians in US Open field
Jason Scrivener earns his second US Open start
Perth’s Jason Scrivener will join his fellow Australians Jason Day, Min Woo Lee and Cameron Smith along with New Zealander Ryan Fox in the field for the 2024 US Open at Pinehurst on June 13th but with Final Qualifying still to be played at a further ten locations across the USA in the coming weeks there is the possibility of more being added to that total
Day, Lee, Smith and Fox were all exempt from qualifying via their various performances in world golf over the past year, while Scrivener will play his second US Open courtesy of Final Qualifying at Walton Heath in England overnight.
Scrivener missed the cut at his only other appearance in the event in 2018 but by gaining one of the nine qualifying spots yesterday he is on his way to North Carolina.
Adam Scott is currently not exempt from playing his 23rd US Open in succession and has either to be inside the top 60 in the world by June 10th, final qualifying or rely on the USGA’s generosity to earn a place in the field.
Scott is currently in 62nd place in the world ranking, his missed cut at the PGA Championship costing him his chance of being in the field by now as he was in 56th place heading into Valhalla.
