The 1941 U.S. Open was the 45th U.S. Open held June 5–7 1941 at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth Texas. Craig Wood who had lost in a playoff at the U.S. Open two years earlier finally broke through and claimed his first U.S. Open title three strokes ahead of runner-up Denny Shute in sweltering heat. Shute had defeated him in a playoff at the 1933 British Open.Wood opened the tournament with a 73 in the first round and followed that up with a 71 in the rain-delayed second.
