Golf enthusiasts heading to the
U.S. Open
this week at Oakmont will have to shell out hefty amounts for refreshments, with a bottle of water costing more than a bag of chips, according to an online price list.
It’s some way off the Masters prices.
Top golfers like
Rory McIlroy
,
Scottie Scheffler
, and
Bryson DeChambeau
are set to compete in the year’s third major championship. Fans who’ve already spent a pretty penny on tickets will also have to dig deep into their pockets for food and beverages.
A bottle of water is priced at $4.95, which is steeper than a bag of chips going for $3.49. Corona seems to be the primary beer available, setting fans back nearly $11.95 per bottle.

Interestingly, that’s the same cost as a cheeseburger from the main menu. A Philly cheesesteak comes with a price tag of $13.95, while an Italian sausage is $10.95. The most affordable main menu item is an all-beef hot dog, priced at $7.59.
Vegetarian options are also available, including a $12.25 asiago turkey sandwich, a $10.95 veggie wrap, and a $9.95 caesar salad. From the breakfast menu, a single banana can be purchased for $1.95.
The biggest names in golf have already begun arriving at Oakmont. Masters champion McIlroy, however, isn’t too optimistic about his chances after missing the cut at the Canadian Open, where he scored a dismal nine over par.

When questioned about his performance, McIlroy expressed his concerns to the PGA Tour’s media outlets, saying: “Of course it concerns me. You don’t want to shoot high scores like the one I did today. I felt like I came here with a new driver thinking that was going to be good and solve some of the problems off the tee, but it didn’t.
“Going to Oakmont next week, what you need to do more than anything else there is hit fairways. [I’m] still searching for the missing piece off the tee. When I get that part of the game clicking, then everything falls into place for me. Right now, that isn’t.”
“Even though the two days didn’t go the way I wanted them to, there’s still things I can take from it and still things I can learn. I’m going to have to do a lot of practice, a lot of work over the weekend at home and try to at least have a better idea of where my game is going into next week.”
