 Permanent link   All Posts

More than 24 hours after it began, the second round is finally complete. Mike Calef of West Bridgewater, Mass., defeated Ben Hayes of Scottsdale, Ariz., in 21 holes to complete round two. It was the longest match of the championship.

Calef's third-round opponent will be Sean Knapp of Oakmont, Pa. Knapp, a Mid-Amateur semifinalist in 2008, has spent his time waiting for his opponent to be determined on the practice tee and practice green. --Pete Kowalski
