U.S. Amateur: Ricky Castillo scrambles to avoid upset in the Round of 64

PARAMUS, N.J. – Ricky Castillo was momentarily a twisted mess.

Moments after watching a six-foot putt for par slide past the hole, the 21-year-old Californian was lamenting the loss of a 1-up edge and contorting on the 18^th tee at Ridgewood Country Club while a wayward drive flirted with trees well down the left side Wednesday in a Round of 64 match at the U.S. Amateur.
