India golfer Anirban Lahiri carded a three-under 67, followed by a flawless seven-under 65 at the 36-hole sectional qualifier here, to qualify for his third US Open.
Lahiri, who last played a Major at the PGA Championships in August 2018, will feature in his 16th Major and third US Open, which is the only Major where he has not made the cut. His best is tied-5 in the 2015 PGA Championships. His last pro win came at the 2015 Hero Indian Open at home.
Missing out
Shubhankar Sharma missed out on qualification after he carded 69 at Brookside. It included an eagle but the 22-year-old closed with a double bogey. At Scioto, he shot 71 with three birdies and four bogeys for 71 and ended at 140.
Three Indians — Shiv Kapur (71, 70), Ajeetesh Sandhu (76, 73) and Gaganjeet Bhullar (72, WD) failed to qualify from Walton Heath, Surrey.
Also missing out was another Indian Rigel Fernandes (75, 73) at Streamstrong, USA.
