    The official 2026 USGA Championship Record Book directly enumerates the completed 2001 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 official Club register assigns its major championships to the Maxwell Championship Course and lists the 1958, 1977 and 2001 U.S. Opens. The official history distinguishes this original course, opened in 1936, from the West Nine added in 1992. The canonical original course has independently reviewed physical/history facts. This establishes physical-course continuity without asserting unchanged holes or all-round usage. The reviewed 2026 USGA record book separately confirms the completed edition and host.
