    The official 2026 USGA Championship Record Book directly enumerates the completed 1907 Championship, champion, explicit date span, and site in Championship Results: 1895 to 2025. The recorded champion and site preserve the higher-resolution register text. The current official U.S. Open Champions table independently confirms the year, champion, and site.

    The owner explicitly identifies St. Martins as host of the 1907 and 1910 U.S. Opens. These used the former eighteen-hole course, before its reduction to the surviving nine. This link preserves historical course identity; it does not assert the current nine-hole setup or certify stored legacy tee positions. The disputed 1897/1898 expansion year is not selected.
