The tournament at Southern Hills Country Club will see some of the world's strongest players tackle the challenging par-70 course in hopes of lifting the iconic Wanamaker Trophy.
Herbert heads into the major on the back of missing the cut at his two most recent tournaments, Zurich Classic of New Orleans and the Masters, but will look to bounce back with a strong return performance.
Sport news:
Currently ranked number 46 in the world, Herbert will start his victory campaign in the early hours of Friday morning AEST.
