Chun An Yu, ( @kevingolfyu ) who will be a junior on the @SunDevilMGolf team in 2018-19, earned the right to play in the 2018 U.S. Open on Monday by winning the Lake Merced Sectional Qualifier with an 8-under 135 (65-70). There were five spots available for the 86 golfers, but An Yu came out firing with seven birdies in the opening round and posted just two bogeys in 36 holes.
He will play in the 118th U.S. Open Championship to be held at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, N.Y., June 11-17.
