The 2002 United States Open Championship was the 102nd U.S. Open, held June 13–16 at the Black Course of Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, New York, east of New York City on Long Island. Tiger Woods was the champion at 277 (−3), three shots ahead of runner-up Phil Mickelson. It was Woods' second U.S. Open victory and eighth major championship win of his career. Woods was the only golfer in the field to finish under par.
This U.S. Open was billed as "The People's Open", as it was the first to be held on a true public golf course.
For the first time in thirty years, the winner of the Masters also won the U.S. Open, for the first half of the grand slam. It was last accomplished by Jack Nicklaus in 1972, and also by Arnold Palmer (1960), Ben Hogan (1951, 1953), and Craig Wood (1941).
Nick Faldo and Hale Irwin were given special exemptions from the USGA to play in the event.https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2245&dat=20020530&id=_M00AAAAIBAJ&sjid=GiEGAAAAIBAJ&pg=6822,3893544&hl=en Faldo gets special exemption to U.S. Open Lodi News-Sentinel California Associated Press May 30, 2002 16http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/2002/02/02/gol_330986.shtml Irwin gets special exemption for U.S. Open Augusta Chronicle Georgia Associated Press February 2, 2002
