Shootin’ It With Shopes: The US Open at Oakmont (Golf Photography)
Golf is a fickle sport, one us amateurs claim to have tamed throughout a round of golf – usually peaking with birdies and pars around holes 6 through 12 before coming back down to Earth. There are four tournaments played throughout the year that peak all golf fans’ interest. Those are the four Major Championships: The Masters (April), The PGA Championship (May), The U.S. Open (June), and The Open (July). This year, it just so happens, The U.S. Open is coming to my backyard. The 125th U.S. Open is being held at Oakmont Country Club – just 40 minutes from my house. This will be a record 10th time Oakmont Country Club will host The U.S. Open. I don’t have to go into the details of “I’ve always wanted to go to a PGA Tour golf tournament.” That’s known. As a photographer, I’ve always wanted to photograph a PGA Tour golf tournament, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do here…kinda.
