Jackson Suber, 24, makes the most of last minute entrance into U.S. Open

After rounds of 70-65 at the U.S. Open’s Final Qualifying site in Maryland, Suber faced a three-man playoff to determine the site’s two alternate spots. Suber, a second-year Korn Ferry Tour member, made a 50-footer on the third extra hole (his 39th of the day) and earned the spot after Kieran Vincent missed a 5-footer. It was a nice feeling but there were no guarantees – Suber was first alternate at Pinehurst No. 2 until Tuesday afternoon, when Jon Rahm’s WD gave him a Thursday afternoon tee time with Jordan Spieth and Hideki Matsuyama.
