It was a summer to remember for Nick Dunlap, who capped off his impressive performance with a U.S. Amateur title. The 20-year-old from Texas had an incredible run of success this summer, including a victory at the Texas Amateur and a runner-up finish at the Southern Amateur.
Dunlap’s U.S. Amateur victory was especially impressive, as he had to battle through a field of some of the best amateur golfers in the country. He was able to stay focused and consistent throughout the tournament, shooting rounds of 68-70-68-69 to finish at 11-under par. His final round 69 was the lowest score of the day, and it was enough to give him a two-stroke victory over his nearest competitor.
This victory marks the second U.S. Amateur title for Dunlap, who also won the event in 2017. He is now one of only a handful of players to have won the event multiple times, and it is a testament to his skill and dedication as a golfer.
Dunlap’s summer performance has been nothing short of remarkable, and it is clear that he is one of the top amateur golfers in the country. He will now turn his attention to the upcoming college golf season, where he will look to continue his success and build on his impressive summer performance.
