Today was final qualifying for the US Open which will be next week at Los Angeles Country Club. Advancing was about as hard as getting into Stanford. Example - 67 players for 4 spots at one site. 60 players for 4 spots at another.

4 Stanford golfers made it - Patrick Rodgers, Michael Thorbjornsen, Karl Vilips and Barclay Brown. Brown was looking at a playoff for the final spots at his qualifying site until he birdied his 36th and final hole of the day to make it. As far as I can tell, Joseph Bramlett is the only current player or alum who played today and did not advance.

I wonder how much longer Maverick McNealy will be playing professional golf. He won the Haskins award in 2015, played in the U. S. Open in 2014 and 2017 but since then has only made the PGA championship among the majors (and finished 75th).
