The U.S. Open is coming back to Pebble Beach for the sixth time - but this one is special since Pebble Beach Golf Links will be celebrating its 100th year. The 119th U.S. Open Championship will be held from June 10-16, 2019 and this is your opportunity to be part of golf history. This post is a living document that we plan to update with additional information as we get closer to the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. To start with though, we've scoured the internet to help answer all of your questions. Comment below if you have questions about the championship. Let's kick things off with some basic information that you'll need to know if you are thinking about attending the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach, including tickets, transportation, and lodging!
Where Is Pebble Beach?
Pebble Beach is located between Monterrey and Carmel by the Sea, California. The resort is about an hour southeast of San Jose and 90 minutes south of San Francisco. It is easily accessible via the Monterey Regional Airport as well as the three major airports in the "Bay Area" including SFO, SJC, and OAK.
U.S. Open Pebble Beach 2019 Tickets
Tickets for the 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach Golf Links are now on sale. You can buy tickets by visiting the USGA website. Various U.S. Open ticket pricing options are available from the Centennial Club ($725-$975 per day) to Gallery tickets starting at only $60 per day. When you buy U.S. Open at Pebble Beach tickets between now and Dec 9, they have a cool promo that you should consider. The first 100 ticket buyers who purchase Centennial Club tickets will receive a limited-edition, hand stamped bronze bag tag mounted to a piece of Cypress wood. All other U.S. Open Centennial Club tickets will receive a hand-stamped, bronze bag tag like the one you at the top of this post.
U.S. Open Ticket Buyers who place orders at usga.org/tickets before Dec 9, 2018 will be able to personalize the bag tag and delivery is promised by Dec 23. This makes U.S. Open tickets a perfect holiday gift idea for the men in your life that love golf!
If you can't order before Dec. 9, don't worry - while the U.S. Open bag tag can't be personalized and won't be able to be delivered by Christmas it still makes a great momento.

What Does The 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach Logo Symbolize?
The logo for the 2019 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach has several important elements that come together to make one of the coolest golf championship logos that I've seen in awhile.
Red, White, and Blue Colors - these are obviously the colors of our American flag
Six Stripes - each of the red and white stripes represents one of the six U.S. Opens held here at Pebble Beach
The Lone Cypress - this is a symbol of Pebble Beach Golf Links since it was founded in 1919 and stands proudly as one of golfings most recognized traditions. You can still see it standing on a rocky outcropping along the water as you cruise along the famous Pebble Beach 17-mile Drive.

Do You Have a Map of Pebble Beach
When you enter 17-mile Drive, the main access road to Pebble Beach, you will get a map. However, you can also view a pdf version of the 17-mile drive map online. This map of Pebble Beach lists all of the main viewing points along the drive as well as maps of facilities important to those looking to visit Pebble Beach for the 2019 U.S. Open. This map also includes bathrooms, restaurants, and even picnic spots.
However, prepare for some of these spots to change as we get closer to the U.S. Open dates.
