STATEMENT FROM MAYOR GARCETTI ON L.A.’S SELECTION AS U.S. OPEN HOST
“Los Angeles is honored to have been selected as the site for the 2023 U.S. Open. The last time we hosted the Open was 1948, and 2023 will mark the 75th Anniversary of that tournament. The United States Golf Association has made an excellent choice with the legendary Los Angeles Country Club. The U.S. Open is a proven winner, with a current economic impact of approximately $150 million, and L.A. looks forward to welcoming golfers and spectators from around the world.
My office has been working with the United States Golf Association, and we’ll continue that work as we finalize the City’s role in putting on a successful U.S. Open.”
