History is a heavy burden to haul around a golf course, especially in a USGA championship contested on a layout as demanding as Barton Hills Country Club. But that was the load carried by three of the game’s biggest stars in Thursday’s first round of the 8th U.S. Senior Women’s Open in Ann Arbor, Mich.
And they all handled the task magnificently.

Florida State University rising senior Jack Whaley, 22, of England, defeated Stanford University rising junior Jay Leng Jr., 20, of San Diego, Calif., 4 and 3, in Sunday’s 36-hole championship match of the 126th U.S. Amateur Championship at historic Merion Golf Club.

Twenty-one years ago, a relatively unheralded European golfer captured the U.S. Amateur title at Merion Golf Club after sneaking into the match-play draw from a 19-man playoff.

Jack Whaley is possibly following the same path. The 21-year-old Englishman didn’t have any final-hole heroics, but the Florida State University rising senior did nearly make an ace on the par-3 13th hole during the 16-man playoff on Wednesday morning to grab one of the 11 available spots.
