From the rugged coastlines of the US Open to historic stops across Europe, June is the month where golf truly takes centre stage worldwide. Here is what is teeing off across the globe this month.

The Ultimate Test: The U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills

The middle of June brings the third men’s major of the year, and this time, the world’s best are heading to the iconic, wind-swept links of Shinnecock Hills in New York. Known as one of the most gruelling setups in all of sport, the U.S. Open is golf’s ultimate mental and physical exam. Expect drama, thick rough, lightning-fast greens, and a Sunday finish that will have everyone on the edge of their seats. It’s the kind of tournament that inspires you to test your own limits on the course.

Elevating the Game: The KPMG Women’s PGA Championship

The women’s major season hits a thrilling high note this month at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. Heading to a world-class championship layout, the best players in the world will battle it out for one of the most prestigious trophies in the game. Following dominant early-season displays from stars like Nelly Korda, June is where the race for player of the year truly intensifies. The precision and strategy on display during this major week are a masterclass for any golfer looking to sharpen their own course management.

European Summer Highlights: The Amgen Irish Open

Across the Atlantic, June marks the spectacular start of the European summer swing, highlighted by the historic Irish Open. Played on some of the world’s finest and most breathtaking links land, this tournament brings an electric atmosphere, massive crowds, and true coastal golf.

Signature Drama: The Travelers Championship

Immediately following the U.S. Open, the PGA Tour heads to TPC River Highlands for the Travelers Championship.

TPC River Highlands is notorious for big swings, risk-reward eagle opportunities, and frantic birdie charges down the stretch. It’s fast-paced, high-energy summer golf at its absolute best.
