    The official 2026 USGA Championship Record Book directly enumerates the completed 1964 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.

• USGA dated host record and researched Club identity
  • Congressional Country Club

    Official Club or regional association evidence corroborates the historical host identity for Congressional Country Club; the dated USGA venue wording and canonical locality are retained separately. The 1964 Composite and historical Blue routing require Course identity review. The stored Blue record is explicitly labelled 2010 and lacks a hole count.
