The USGA had a number of "poorer" received tournament in the 2010's - Congressional and Erin Hills because the scoring was too good... and Chambers Bay.    And none are on the list of future sites, and I don't think they will ever be in consideration again.    If LACC did not have that commitment for 2039, they may have been in the same fate.

As I noted above, the USGA has awarded 20 of the next 28 opens until 2051, and have loaded up on tradition reach past US Open Sites.

For those wondering, if you go to the bottom of the Wiki Page you seeall the future sites of US Open ... they have loaded up on traditional US Open courses -- Pinehurst (5 future commitments), Oakmont (4), Pebble Beach (4), Merion (2), Oakland Hills (2)

It is interesting for those in the NY Area, that after Shinnecock in 2026 and Winged Foot in 2028, there are no future US Open's currently planned there.    I have to suspect some of the 8 openings between 2031 and 2051, are coming somewhere in the area -- perhaps they look at Bethpage again?
