More Weekly Read: Final push for the 2024 Olympic Golf Tournament
Matt Kuchar will play in his 22nd U.S. Open this week and he got in the field the hard way: by qualifying. Kuchar was the medalist at The Bear’s Club last Monday at the 36-hole qualifying site in Florida and will join Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods as the only players in the field who also played at Pinehurst No. 2 in 1999.
At the time, Kuchar was a 20-year-old amateur at Georgia Tech.
