Enterprise golf standout Jon Ed Steed left the Daniel Island Club course in Charleston, S.C., Wednesday feeling good about his first experience at the U.S. Junior Amateur.
The Enterprise High star tied for 25th place out of 264 golfers in stroke play to qualify for match play at the tournament. In the round of 64, he played even with Rowan Sullivan for 18 holes and the two had to go to a playoff. Sullivan, playing in his hometown, won the 19th hole to advance.“My main goal was to get to match play and after that, see what I could do,” Steed said Thursday in a Dothan Eagle interview. “It was good all around. I felt good about the two rounds of stroke play.
Steed, who qualified for the U.S. Junior Amateur by earning third place in a June qualifying event at the Country of Birmingham, finished the two days of stroke play at the Daniel Island Club with a 142 score. He had an even-par 71 the first day on the Beresford Creek course before turning in a 1-under 71 the second day on the Ralston Creek course.
It was a more up and down round on the second day on the harder Ralston Creek layout. He earned six birdies, but also had three bogeys plus a double bogey on No. 10. After both finished with a birdie on 12th, Sullivan again closed the gap back to one hole after No. 13 and 14. The two both delivered par on the next three holes, bring the match to the final regulation hole with Steed up one.
