Amateur Tyler Weaver Qualifies for US Open as PGA Tour Stars Fall Short

Posted : 03 June 2025

English amateur golfer Tyler Weaver has secured his place in the upcoming US Open after impressing at the final qualifying event. The 22-year-old, part of the England Golf men’s squad, finished tied for third at 11 under par in Atlanta, earning one of the 47 spots available across ten venues in the U.S. and Canada. Weaver was one of just three amateurs to qualify in his location, with 17-year-old American Mason Howell topping the leaderboard.

 

The event, often referred to as “golf’s longest day,” saw competitors play 36 holes in a single day across multiple sites. While it was a day of celebration for some, big-name PGA Tour players like Rickie Fowler and Max Homa fell short. At the Columbus, Ohio qualifier, South Africa’s Erik van Rooyen led the field, while Cameron Young grabbed the last qualifying spot in a tense five-man play-off, leaving Fowler and Homa disappointed.

 

Elsewhere, England’s Matt Wallace made the cut in Ontario with a seven-under finish, alongside Denmark’s Thorbjorn Olesen. In Maryland, Ryan McCormick and Trevor Cone claimed the first two slots, while a play-off saw Marc Leishman of Australia and American amateur Bryan Lee also book their spots. In Washington, former Oakmont caddie-turned-dentist Matt Vogt clinched a place, continuing a unique journey from carrying clubs to competing in one of golf’s biggest tournaments.

 

At the Florida qualifier, play was delayed due to bad weather, pushing the competition into Tuesday. English amateur Luke Poulter, the 21-year-old son of Ian Poulter, was in strong contention at fourth place after carding a 69 in the first round. Former US Open champion Graeme McDowell also stayed in the hunt with a solid opening round, though fellow Northern Irishman Tom McKibbin did not progress. The US Open will be held at Oakmont, Pennsylvania, from 12 to 15 June.
