It has been a great summer of amateur golf for recent Ohio State graduate Neal Shipley, who just put an exclamation mark on it with a runner-up finish at the 123rd U.S. Amateur Championship at Cherry Hills Country Club in Cherry Hills Village, Colo.
Shipley made a run to the final match of the Championship, ultimately losing to Alabama standout Nick Dunlap.
At the U.S. Amateur, the field starts with 312 golfers and, after 36 holes of stroke play, is cut to 64 golfers for a round of 64 match play.
Shipley finished 1-under through the 36-hole stroke play portion and tied for 38th place.
