golf Major get a haircut? The Country Club (US Open) does include a barbershop for the players.
Barbers are now considered a requirement for athletes. Before a competition or a tournament, every sports athlete gets a new haircut. The main goal is to look good and have confidence in oneself before competing in front of the world.

During the 2022 US Open, a photo of the “Official US Open Barber” was captured and shared on Twitter. The fans on Twitter could not hold on to their banter as they kept making jokes on the barber.

With the US Open having an official barber, it will be great to see all other Majors as well as Tournaments assign one since haircuts define one’s personality and add to it.

The barber shop at Shinnecock Hills

Though the photo of the barber at the 2022 US Open went viral, it isn’t the first time that barbers were made available at the US Open. During the 2018 US Open, many golfers had access to barbers in the locker room at the Shinnecock Hills.

Montamez and Canillas from a local barbershop near the golf course were called for giving the PGA Tour golfers haircuts during the Major. The two men groomed players of the likes of Bryson DeChambeau, Sam Burns and Zach Johnson only to name a few. The barbers were given a corner in the locker room and had all the necessary tools that they required.

Despite most players preferring to wear caps or hats, they still prefer getting a haircut right before a Major. This shows how a good a haircut can be a key factor for a player’s confidence boost and boosting morale during the game.
