Like any major golf tournament, the 2019 U.S. Open field is stacked with big names. The top 33 golfers in the world are all partcipating in the notoriously difficult tournament, which will take place at storied Pebble Beach in 2019.
Brooks Koepka, the two-time U.S. Open defending champion, is the man to beat in the field, but each of the top five golfers in the world have won the tournament at least once before — including Tiger Woods in 2000, 2002 and 2008.

There will be 156 golfers participating in the U.S. Open, each of whom qualified through at least one of several routes. There are 15 possible ways to get an exemption as well as 12 sectional qualifiers for those who didn't fit the exemption criteria. Local tournaments also provide the possibility of qualifying.
Koepka, Woods and Ernie Els are the only members of the field who have won the tournament multiple times, while nine one-time winners in the field will hope to join that group after this year.
