Ohio State golfer Maxwell Moldovan qualifies for 123rd U.S. Open

For the second straight season, Ohio State rising senior Maxwell Moldovan will participate in the U.S. Open as an amateur. Moldovan was the first alternate from the Springfield qualifier and the third alternate over all. He found out late Sunday evening that he had officially made the field for the 123rd U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club.

His day of qualifying was one for the ages.

At Springfield Country Club, there were 75 golfers vying for five qualifying spots and two alternates.

Oklahoma State University alum Sam Stevens shot 65-62 to earn medalist honors at 13-under par.
