Mason Howell didn’t have much time to celebrate winning the 125th U.S. Amateur.
Three days after hoisting the Havemeyer Trophy at the Olympic Club in San Francisco, the 18-year-old attended his first day of senior year in Georgia. Obviously, he’s no ordinary high schooler. After starting classes a week and a half late, because of the Amateur, he wasn’t doing homework once he got home. Instead, Howell was doing a series of post-victory media interviews, with childhood pictures behind him.
