Mark Anderson will look to keep the hot summer play going for the University of Louisville men's golfers as he heads into the first day of action on Monday at the U.S. Amateur Championships at the Oakland Hills Country Club, in Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
For Anderson, a Sioux Falls, S.D. native, this will be his second major event of the summer, having previously qualified for a U.S. Open Sectional earlier in June. During his freshman season at U of L, Anderson teamed with Brett Jones and Charlie Woo to give the Cards the nation's No. 5 freshman class according to the Golfstat Freshman Class Impact Rankings.
The first and second rounds of stroke play are set for Monday and Tuesday (Aug. 19-20) on both the North and South Courses at Oakland Hills Country Club. All match play rounds will be played on the South Course. A single round of match play is scheduled on Wednesday (Aug. 21), followed by the second and third rounds on Thursday (Aug. 22), and single rounds again from Friday-Sunday (Aug. 23-25).
Following two days of stroke play (Monday, Aug. 19, and Tuesday, Aug. 20), the field of 312 golfers will be reduced to the lowest 64 scorers, who will advance to match play. All matches are 18 holes except the final match. The 36-hole championship final match is scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 25.
