The US Am started today with two days of stroke play from Bel Air CC and Riviera CC. The top 64 advance to match play starting Wednesday; all match play rounds are played at Riviera CC. Live coverage starts Wednesday: streaming at usga.org and TV on FS1. Weekend coverage moves to Fox I believe. This also marks the first year the entire Walker Cup team will be picked after the US Am
This is probably my favorite tournament of the year. It gives us a chance to see future stars before they make it to the tour. 3 players are tied at the top after day 1 at -6, Norman Xiong, Hayden Wood, and Mark Lawerence Jr. Norman Xiong is continuing his strong play from the past few weeks. Which saw him win the Western Am. Other players to watch IMO would be Cameron Champ, Scottie Scheffler, Will Zalatoris, Braden Thornberry, and Maverick McNeely. Should be a really good watch and exciting tourney. It will be interesting to see how different/same these guys play Riv. Compared to the tour guys when they are in town.
