We’ve had such a great time hosting the US Amateur Matchplay Championships this year, as it’s an exciting way for players across the nation to compete for a pretty sweet prize and, of course, huge bragging rights.
Our highlight video shows Matt Whitlock from South Carolina and Jacob Dills from Oregon battle it out for this year’s win. Here are some highlights if you can’t watch the whole video right now:
- Both players had to contend with OB at Peter Pan Park and the stress of shot for shot play, and while some shots may not have ended up exactly like they wanted, both played incredibly well
- The mental aspect of the game really came into focus as the players could control the pressure they put on the other with each shot and putt
- After 10 holes, Whitlock was at +3 for the round with Dills shooting an even par
Did the tides turn on the back nine for Matt or did Jacob continue his lead? You’ll have to watch the video to find out who took home 18 Veteran baskets and discs for life!
