Ohio State golfer Neal Shipley advances to the championship match of the U.S. Amateur, earning him invitations to both The Masters and the U.S. Open in 2024.
Shipley’s comeback win sets up an Ohio State vs. Alabama matchup in the final, where Shipley will go head-to-head with Alabama’s Nick Dunlap over 36 holes. The 36-hole final begins at 9 a.m. Sunday, with television coverage beginning at 3 p.m. on Golf Channel and continuing at 4 p.m. on NBC.
If Shipley wins, he’ll become the third Buckeye to win the U.S. Amateur, joining Jack Nicklaus and John Cook . By making the final, Shipley has already punched his ticket to play in both The Masters and the U.S. Open in 2024, as both of those majors award invitations to both the winner and the runner-up of the U.S. Amateur.
A fifth-year senior, Shipley joined the Buckeyes last season as a graduate transfer from James Madison and was a PING All-America honorable mention after posting five top-20 finishes with a 72.72 scoring average. He has one more year of collegiate eligibility.
