Ryan McCarthy into the US Amateur

Ryan has qualified for the US Amateur for the second year running! He played his qualifying event at the Muskegon Country Club, a typical US Country Club course, short, tight & with pins all tucked. Ryan played two rounds, the second 18 being ‘rough’, but he birdied 4 of the last 7 holes and ended the day 3 under. He was the last player to finish and had estimated that he needed to birdie the last hole to make it, but the birdie putt just lipped out. Nonetheless, he won by one shot when all results were tallied. Ryan said his 12 birdies were the most he has scored in one day.

Three people tied for second place including his mate from Queensland, Tim Hart. In the resulting playoff, Tim was defeated on the third playoff hole when one of the other players chipped in.

Ryan did well in last year's US Amateur, then dislocated his shoulder and has been recovering from that setback for the past six months.

Ryan's back!
