1973, 1983, 1984, & 1986 US Open Championship Official Programs
In the 1973 US OPEN Johnny Miller fired a record 63 in the final round to win his first Major championship, one of the finest performances in tournament history. He finished one stroke ahead of John Schlee at Oakmont Country Club.
Much of the attention at the 1983 United States Open staged at Oakmont Country Club outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania was focused on Seve Ballesteros and Tom Watson. When Larry Nelson shot a low round of the event 65 on Saturday, he was in second place and in the hunt. With rain interrupting Sunday's final round, Nelson came back and hit a long birdie putt of 60 feet to spark his 67 on the final round and a one stroke victory over Watson. This Major win combined with PGA Championship wins in 1981 and 1987 guided the election of Nelson into the Golf Hall of Fame.
The 1984 U.S. Open was played at Winged Foot Golf Club. Fuzzy Zoeller defeated Greg Norman in an 18-hole playoff to win his first U.S. Open and second major championship. This was also the first time in 31 years that Arnold Palmer failed to qualify for the U.S. Open.
Ray Floyd captured the 1986 US Open Championship marking his third different Major(Masters, PGA, US Open), and fourth Major title in his Hall of Fame career.
