US Open Final Qualifying - Who Made It And Who Missed Out?

The US Open Qualifying places have been finalized and we now know who will be teeing it up at Los Angeles Country Club this June, alongside the already confirmed top 60 golfers in the Official World Golf Ranking.

Perhaps the biggest news from the 'Longest Day in Golf' is that PGA Pro Micheal Block's fairytale story from the PGA Championship will not continue into this month's Major.

The 46-year-old dazzled at Oak Hill back in May, hitting a final round hole-in-one to finish T15. However, he will not play in this month's US Open, having missed out on a qualifying place by two shots at the Lambton Country Club in Ontario, Canada on Monday.

The fairytale does continue for Block though, as he's in the field on the PGA Tour for this week's RBC Canadian Open.

His son, Dylan, was also bidding to qualify for the third Major of the year, with the 18-year-old competing in the tournament at the Hillcrest Country Club in Los Angeles, but finished well back in the field at +10 after a difficult second round.

He was one of several young players hoping to secure a place at the Major, with American golf prodigy, Jaden Soong, who is just 13-years-old, also competing at Hillcrest.

He finished 58th in the field, missing out on a place in the upcoming tournament, but had he qualified, he would have become the youngest player to ever feature at the Major.

Menwhile, there was plenty of drama across all of the qualifiers, with 2009 US Open Champion Lucas Glover agonisingly missing a short putt to drop out of the qualifying places on the final day at the tournament in Columbus, Ohio.

Elsewhere, amateur player Micheal Brennan would card a sensational second round 65 to earn his place at the Major.  He'd finish inside top three at the Maryland qualifier at the Woodmont Country Club, Rockville, rescuing his ball from an insanely tough lie to hit a sensational up and down on the final hole.

With his ball resting on the top lip of the bunker, Brennan defied the odds to flop his shot up and onto the green, before putting out for par to buy his spot in the field in Los Angeles.

Seventeen LIV Golfers were also in contention, but only four have advanced to the US Open via the final qualifying route.

Sergio Garcia was perhaps the biggest of those names to qualify, with the 2017 Masters champion finishing T4 in Dallas last month.

He'll be joined in Los Angeles by fellow qualifiers Sebastian Munoz, Carlos Ortiz and David Puig who also secured their places at the upcoming Major. Ortiz came through a six--hole playoff in Florida to book his spot in LA.

The 2009 Open champion Stewart Cink struck five birdies in six holes at Brookside Golf Club in Ohio to earn his place at the Major along with plenty of other PGA Tour names like Eric Cole, Patrick Rodgers and Kevin Streelman.

Some star amateurs also made it through, including Stanford's Michael Thorbjornsen, currently 3rd in the World Amateur Golf Ranking, and No.2 Gordon Sargent, who played in this year's Masters. England's Barclay Brown, who played in the 150th Open, also made it through.

The world's number one amateur Ludvig Aberg, who is now a PGA Tour card holder, missed out in Toronto by three strokes despite an opening 66.
