The US Open is notorious for its tough conditions and how it tests every facet of a golfer’s game. This year, the national championship will be held at the historic Oakmont Country Club. In part one of the series, CNN Living Golf explored one of the toughest golf courses in the world and its history.
In the second part of this series, Shane O’Donoghue and CNN Living Golf sits down with 2006 US Open Champion Geoff Ogilvy to get his thoughts on what it takes to win this prestigious event. Geoff also reflects back on his Major victory at Winged Foot Golf Club, out-dueling Phil Mickelson, who is still looking to complete the career Grand Slam.
Phil has six runner-up finishes at past US Opens and this national championship is the only hole left on his resume in his quest to fulfill the career Grand Slam. Could this be the year that Phil finally gets it done?
