The USGA and the world’s top players will return to Oakmont for the U.S. Open June 12-15. Many players, like Max Homa and Rickie Fowler, are attempting to qualify for the third major of the year.

They are not the only ones. Charlie Woods, who just captured his first win at the Team TaylorMade Invitational, attempted to qualify earlier in May. However, Tiger’s 16-year-old son faltered at the May 9 qualifier and did not advance.

Now it’s time for another golf legend’s son to try it.

Luke Poulter, Ian Poulter’s 21-year-old son, is in the final stages of getting into the U.S. Open field.

He shot a 5-under 66 in his qualifier at Hawkstone Country Club in Gainesville, Florida, on May 8 to advance. It was a full-circle moment for him after he hurt his back in 2024 during this process.

Luke will play in one of the 10 final qualifiers taking place across the country on Monday, June 2, also known as the ‘Longest Day in Golf.’

Nine locations are in the United States, and one is in Canada, at Lambton Golf & Country Club in York, Ontario.

Luke is among the 84 players who will play at Emerald Dunes Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, for one of the limited spots in the U.S. Open.

It will not be easy for him as his qualifier has stout competition. The Florida Gator redshirt sophomore is in the field with the 2010 U.S. Open champ, Graeme McDowell.

Poulter had a fantastic year with the Gators. He won his first collegiate title at the Schenkel Invitational at Forest Heights Country Club in Georgia this past March with an 8-under overall score.

The 21-year-old had five top 10s this season and finished T4 at the NCAA Bremerton Regional in Washington a couple of weeks ago. He recorded a career tournament low with a 10-under 206 score.

Poulter also recently earned a spot on the International Team for the 2025 Arnold Palmer Cup and PING All-Region for 2025.

Much like Tiger Woods is with his son Charlie, Ian Poulter is quite proud of his son’s accomplishments. He also never misses an opportunity to brag about Luke on social media.

However, Luke has a chance to do something that Charlie couldn’t do. Granted, he has five years on the young Woods, but it is something to note.

Fans interested in U.S. Open final qualifying can watch on Monday from noon to 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. to midnight on the Golf Channel. Scoring from all of the locations can be found at usopen.com.

Players will play 36 holes on Monday to see who will be at Oakmont in a couple weeks.
