LOUISVILLE, Ky. - The University of Louisville men's golf team had two players compete in the United States Amateur Championship in Gus Lundquist and JD Lehman. The event, which kicked off Monday Aug. 11, is set to run through Sunday Aug. 17 and is being held at the Atlanta Athletic Club in Johns Creek, Ga.
Lundquist and Lehman each made it two rounds before missing the cut after 36 holes. Lundquist finished eight over par, having shot 76 and 75 in the first two rounds for an overall of 151. Lehman also finished eight over, with scores of 73 and 78 over his first two rounds, giving him a score of 151, as well.
Lundquist has now competed in the U.S. Amateur Championship twice. Lundquist qualified for this year's tournament in July, at the Columbine Country Club in Denver, Colo. As a sophomore for the Cardinals in 2013-14, Lundquist appeared in four of the team's events. He finished the season with a 77.20 stroke average.
The appearance marked the first for Lehman, who also qualified in July when at the Blythewood Country Club in Columbia, S.C. Lehman is coming off of a successful freshman campaign that saw him notch three top 20 finishes and one top five finish in 12 outings.
