What’s usually the “Longest Day in Golf” turned into two at Emerald Valley this year.
After Greyson Leach secured the first qualifying spot into the U.S. Open, one spot remained.
Andrew Putnam and Spencer Tibbits battled through six playoff holes last night until dark, then returned this morning to finish it off. After three more holes, Putnam drained a 40-foot putt to punch his ticket to Shinnecock Hills.
Congratulations to Greyson and Andrew, and best of luck at Shinnecock!
