Anyone Else Going To The US Open Golf?

[allan84]

We are heading along to the 1st day of the US Open golf on the 18th of June.

Its an hour and a bit outside NYC but figured we would never have the chance again to go to a US golf major.

$217 tickets to follow the players around the course. 

Anyone else going?

We’re looking at going along to one of the practice days. Struggling to find a decent transport option from Boston beyond renting a car and driving it, so we’ll likely go for the Tuesday and use Monday/Wednesday for travelling.

The LIRR train runs from NYC Jamaica Queens to Southampton. 

The course is 1 mile from Southampton train station. 
 

There is also a luxury bus that runs too. 
 

Obviously you would need to get to NYC first or drive.

Nice one, cheers. We'll look into those.

I was thinking about it. We are in NY Mo, Tues, Weds.  France v Senegal Play New York 3PM on the Tuesday.  England v Croatia – Group L - Dallas Stadium 4PM is on the Wednesday. Monday and Tues&Weds Mornings to see New York. So not going to have enough time.

I’d have considered it if we were in NYC but not willing to go way out of my way for it. 
 

I’ve got events like that, the Masters and maybe things like a Rugby World Cup on my retirement bucket list.
