Braden Thornberry, one of the best golfers in Ole Miss history, qualified for the U.S. Open this past Monday.
After shooting 66 at Ridgeway Country Club and 68 at Colonial Country Club, Thornberry totaled an overall 9-under par (-9) in the U.S. Open Qualifier to tie for fourth. This score earned the Ole Miss Rebel the opportunity to play in the U.S. Open, one of golf’s most challenging tour events.
Thornberry is coming off yet another impressive year at Ole Miss. He earned four victories this year, making his total victory count 11, a new school record.
