Three Stanford players are in the field. Last weekend featured most of the qualification tournaments. McNealy, Rodgers and Bramlett came up short. Brandon Wu captured a spot and his Stanford teammate, Isaiah Salinda captured an invite. Brandon and Isaiah led Stanford’s last NCAA men’s title. Isaiah is currently playing on the Korn Ferry and sits in 16th. Top 20 at year’s end get their PGA card. The 3rd player is Tiger, who received a special exemption. Unlike the Masters or the PGA Championship, winning the title doesn’t earn a lifetime exemption into the field. The US Open exemption is good for ten years and Tiger was in his 5th year of getting his spot from winning the Masters in 2019.
The golf channel called last Sunday’s day of qualification the ‘longest day.’ I was offended by that given that D-Day happens just four days later.
