No those guys don't have to qualify....Kev can probably rattle it off from the top of his head, but to qualify it has to do with rankings, pga result, pga partners results (euro, asian, etc...) previous open and major records and a whole bunch of other things....they keep spots open for qualifiers and special exemptions....they have sectional qualifying and then regional qualifying and there are hundreds if not thousands of people playing all over the world today for those 25 spots....I was watching TGC yesterday and they mentioned that a lot of the players in the Wales Open were driving somewhere several hours away after yesterdays final round to play in the 36 hole U.S. Open qualifying....anyway not sure that helped at all
