T-2 finish falls short of getting Lahiri into U.S. Open

DUBLIN, Ohio – Anirban Lahiri finished at 10 under par for the week more than four hours before Jason Dufner clinched the Memorial title.

At the time, Lahiri wasn’t fielding questions about a potential tie for second place but about his plans for the next two weeks.

“I don’t know if this gets me in,” he admitted.

Following a T-2 finish Sunday at Muirfield Village, Lahiri is projected to move to 65th in the Official World Golf Ranking, five spots outside next week’s top 60 for exemptions into the U.S. Open.

Lahiri will not tee it up in sectional qualifying Monday, having withdrawn his name last week.

Not in the field for this week’s FedEx St. Jude Classic, Lahiri anticipates making his next start…
