Eden Prairie’s (MN) Ben Greve (-7) missed one green and still made birdie to go along with six others during U.S. Mid-Amateur Qualifying at Cedar Falls’ Beaver Hills Country Club. Greve admitted it was a boring day, yet rewarding.
“I hit it really well,” Greve said of his medalist performance. “I was in control all day and putted pretty well. It was a low stress round really. There are some tee shots you have to hit it in spots. It’s always sweet (to qualify). I am excited to play in the U.S. Mid-Amateur.”
Ankeny’s Jon Olson and Coralville’s Charlie Hoyle earned the other two qualifying spots at Beaver Hills CC, both posted in rounds of 68 (-4).
The 2023 U.S. Mid-Amateur will be played at Sleepy Hollow Country Club and Fenway Golf Club, in Scarsdale, N.Y., Sept. 9-14, 2023.
