Hey everyone! We at the USGA want to have a little fun and need your help to do it.
J.J.'s insane 64-foot birdie putt at Oakmont to win the U.S. Open inspired us, so we’re challenging YOU to recreate that moment. Whether you're on the course, on the practice green or (somehow) getting creative indoors, we want to see your best shot and your best celebration.
📹 Film your attempt and DM it to us on IG https://www.instagram.com/usopengolf/?hl=en or tweet it at us using #JJPutt https://x.com/usopengolf for a chance to be featured on our U.S. Open social channels.
We’ve already seen a few amazing tries out there, so save this post, grab a ball and putter, pace out 64 feet and give it a go.
Try it ’til you make it, but don’t forget to keep up your pace of play (we’re the USGA … [Dan Hicks voice] expect anything different? 🤣).

We’re pretty good at the 6′ Tommy Fleetwood’s around here.
Srixon getting that umbrella exposure
No
I’ve never missed a 64′ putt with a championship on the line in my life
Can I? Yes.
Would I? Improbable
Not on purpose
On normal muni greens? I’ve done it a couple of times.
On those greens? Lmaooooo I would be doing the putter toss if I got it within 10 feet.
Something something broken clock. (This applies to me, not JJ, in case that wasn’t obvious)
I made a 50 foot birdie last week with a LAB putter and Z Star Diamond ball just like JJ. That should count right? Paired with the course Marshall that day who can attest.
I made a 50 footer the other day that had it not hit the pin would have gone a few yards into the rough.
I miss four footers all the time
I have, but I wouldn’t put any money on being able to do the same putt again
That camera operator needs a raise.
Not until a I get a LAB putter
I have pulled off a fifty footer to break ninety 😂
Did it twice in one round last year. Still couldn’t break 80
Sure, give me a couple of buckets of balls
Only when I’m putting for quadruple.
I have in fact made a 60 foot putt at a shiity municipal after topping and skidding two shots up to the green on a par three. So call me JJ.
I’ve hit 2 long putts like that in my life. Both were lucky. Technically, one of them was from just off the green, so it doesn’t classify as a putt, even though i used a putter. The other one was in a 3-man scramble, and I saw the line twice as I was the anchor. That’s why these guys are professionals
No 🙂
Of course I can! I just choose not to!
Once in 12 years so far
