Ohio State’s Neal Shipley will play for the most prestigious title in amateur golf on Sunday.
Shipley advanced to the championship match of the U.S. Amateur with a comeback win over Auburn’s John Marshall Butler on Saturday. After falling into a three-hole deficit through the first 10 holes of Saturday’s semifinal match, Shipley proceeded to win five of the next seven holes, clinching the match with a tap-in birdie on the par-5 17th hole after a beautiful approach shot.
THE SHOT! THE SPIN! THE SHIP! @OhioStateMGOLF's Neal Shipley has punched his ticket to the #USAmateur championship match!
