Bravo for him Catalan David Puigwho will play his third Grand Slam and second in a row. This Monday in La Garriga, just like a year ago, qualified to play the US Open at Pinehurst (North Carolina) next week through the preliminary phase held in various fields. He entered the 36-hole event from Lake Merced, in San Francisco.
The 22-year-old golfer scored 68 and 64 strokes, no bogeys and twelve birdies. This will be the third major he has played in his career, the second US Open after his debut in 2023 at Los Angeles Country Club, where he played all four days. Three weeks ago he played PGA Championship in Valhalla. And he also has a guaranteed place for British Open at Royal Troon (Scotland) next July.
Finally there will be three Spaniards at the US Open next week. Puig came along Jon Rahmclassified according to several criteria, including as champion in 2021, and Eugenio López Chacarrawho also got his place a few weeks ago because of the previous, in his case in Dallas, where Sergio Garcia He remained as the first reserve.
Another great achievement in Puig’s promising career can be confirmed on Monday the 17th after the US Open. His presence at the US Open brings him a little closer to Olympic Games in Paris. This will be the last week that counts for classification and he can add points and defend the second place he currently holds against Adrián Otaegui, Jorge Campillo and Nacho Elvira, who will play this week in Sweden to try to unseat him. Another qualifier for the Games in the Spanish team is Jon Rahm.
