Russell Henley

Russell Henley recorded his best Open result when he finished fifth at Royal Troon in 2024.

It came a month after he was joint seventh at the US Open, and in 2025 he again managed top-10s in both majors - finishing T10 at Royal Portrush after recording the same result in the US Open at Oakmont Country Club.

In March he enjoyed his fifth success on the PGA Tour - but his first since 2022 - when he won the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, beating Collin Morikawa by one after a dramatic chip-in eagle at the 16th.

Throughout the year he had ten top-10 results on the tour, including runner-up finishes at the TOUR Championship behind Tommy Fleetwood and at the Travelers Championship where he missed out to his 2025 Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley.

As an amateur Henley tied for 16th in the 2010 US Open at Pebble Beach and was named America’s outstanding college player that year.

As well as earning a Walker Cup cap the following season – Jordan Spieth, Harris English and Patrick Cantlay were team-mates – he became only the second amateur to win a Nationwide Tour event.

Two years later he was the PGA Tour’s first debutant champion for 12 years with a victory at the Sony Open in Hawaii which included three rounds of 63.
