Garnett played 36 holes of golf in one day on Monday, shooting a pair of 66 rounds to qualify for the 2017 U. S. Open, which runs next week from June 15-17.
This year’s Open takes place at Erin Hills in Wisconsin, the sixth public course to host the U. S. Open in its 117-year history. Qualifying tournaments for the Open were held in late May and the first weekend in June, with 75 golfers advancing from those sectional tournaments to the main event.
Garnett, who turned pro in 2006, also qualified for the U. S. Open in 2012. It was held that year at The Olympic Club in San Francisco.
This year’s Open will be televised on Fox, FS1 and the Fox Sports Go app, with over 45 hours of coverage provided. Over 35,000 spectators are expected to attend the event each day.
