My best friend used to live across the street from his family. Wilson would come over while we were hanging out to putt on my buddy’s putting green in the backyard when he was probably 7 or so. Great kid and great family.

Barber in an 18 person playoff for 3 spots. Barbaree and Winstead have advanced to the 64. Hoping Barber can join them. GEAUX TIGERS!

Barber is currently in a playoff for the last 3 spots. 18 players finished T62. 2 players advanced with a birdie on the 1st playoff hole, so now he's in a 12 for 1.

US Amateur is so hard to win, if you take it down thats as good as a major IMO.

It is so hard to win it.

Nicklaus has always said that he has 20 majors, including his 2 US Amateurs. It really is a beast. The winner plays 9 rounds in a week.

Yup, Nicklaus has always held his US Amateurs up there with any other tournament he has won.

To have two is insane.

Which makes it even more ridiculous that Tiger won 3 straight US Juniors followed by 3 straight Amateurs, then won the Masters the following year.

I’ve watched ten minutes and want to go to Bandon more than ever. Looks incredible.

I’ve been on the Oregon coast backpacking and that was awesome so golf would be even better.

Very surprised. He was steamrolling these courses.
Lots of lower seeds advancing. I suppose Gupta is the favorite now.
