Andrew Paysse Among Six to Advance in ​​​​​​​Weather-Delayed U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship

To some degree, the 41st U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship has turned into a race against fading daylight. Given Sunday’s storm and the loss of nearly half a day on Monday due to course cleanup, the national championship for golfers 25 and older is now playing catchup.

On Tuesday, weather-delayed Round 2 was completed at noontime CDT at Erin Hills and stroke-play co-host Blue Mound Golf & Country Club, with the cut for match play coming at 3-over-par 144. Two hours later, the first Round-of-64 match began at Erin Hills, while the 17-for-12 playoff for the final spots in the draw commenced on No. 10 at 1:30 p.m.

Golf was suspended due to darkness at 6:55 p.m., with six players having advanced to the Round of 32 and 26 matches undecided. Four matches did not start, including those featuring the co-medalists: Jake Shuman, of Boston, Mass., and Sam Jones, of New Zealand.

The Round of 64 will resume at 7:15 a.m. CDT on Wednesday.

But it was a good day for the Paysse family in Wisconsin. Andrew Paysse, of Temple, Texas, the brother-in-law of world No. 1 and 2021-22 PGA Tour Player of the Year Scottie Scheffler, eliminated 2021 U.S. Mid-Amateur semifinalist Hayes Brown, of Charlotte, N.C., 1 up. An hour or so west of Erin Hills, Paysse’s younger brother, William, won his second college tournament, the rain-shortened Badger Invitational at University Ridge Golf Course in Verona, just outside Madison. William tied for first with a 9-under total of 135 to help Texas A&M, which includes 2022 U.S. Amateur champion Sam Bennett, capture the team title by 11 strokes over host Wisconsin.

“That’s so cool,” said Paysse, who has his wife, Callie (Scheffler) Paysse on his bag. “Just to be an hour and a half away, playing at the same time, it’s pretty crazy. I’m so proud of him… He’s playing really good golf right now. This [championship] is just for fun [for me]. What he does is more important.”

Paysse, also a former Texas A&M golfer, thought he might end his match on the par-3 16th when he stuffed his tee shot to gimme range. But Brown coolly rolled in his birdie putt to keep himself 2 down, and when Paysse sloppily three-putted No. 17, the match went to the par-5 18th. Paysse’s birdie from 15 feet stopped inches from the hole and after Brown failed to chip in his fourth shot from the fringe, it was over.

Thomas McCarthy, of New York, N.Y., broke the hearts of Wisconsin golf fans by playing the equivalent of 1-under-par golf (with concessions) to defeat the last in-state hopeful, Jack Schultz of Milwaukee, 7 and 6. McCarthy has taken advantage of paternity leave from his investment-banking job in Manhattan this summer in posting several strong finishes in Metropolitan Golf Association events. He lost in extra holes to 2021 U.S. Mid-Amateur runner-up Mark Costanza in the quarterfinals of the Met Amateur and he was the runner-up in the Met Stroke Play Championship (“the Ike”) at Baltusrol Golf Club.

A member at the Seth Raynor-designed Essex County Country Club in West Orange, N.J., McCarthy felt at home at Blue Mound during stroke play, where he posted a 4-under 66 to help him get into the draw after a 75 at Erin Hills.

Recent Arizona State graduate James Leow, of Singapore, defeated John Humphries, of Woodworth, La., by the same margin. The 25-year-old Leow got a late start to his college career because he served nearly two years in the military, mandatory for all males in Singapore. He didn’t arrive in Tempe until he turned 21, and he missed his junior season at ASU due to labrum surgery.

None of the competitors who finished Round 2 of stroke play on Tuesday could match the 7-under 134 totals posted on Monday by co-medalists Jones and Shuman.

They were one stroke ahead of Dalton Melnyk, of Atlanta, Ga., who carded an even-par 70 at Blue Mound on Tuesday to earn the No. 3 seed. Andrew Bailey, of Cleveland, Ohio, and Hugh Foley, of the Republic of Ireland, were two back. Bailey fired a 4-under 66 at Blue Mound.

First-round leader and defending champion Stewart Hagestad, of Newport Beach, Calif., shot a 4-over 75 at Erin Hills to finish at 2-under 139 and is the No. 14 seed.

What’s Next

Round-of-32 matches are scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. CDT, with the Round of 16 and quarterfinals set for Thursday. The semifinals and the first 18 holes of the 36-hole championship match are scheduled for Friday, with the second 18 of the final being contested on Saturday morning.

Notable

The 17-for-12 playoff for the final match-play spots lasted four holes and just under 2½ hours. Highlights included Nick Ellis converting a 45-foot birdie on the par-4 10th hole and a 51-foot chip-in by Andrew Turner on the third playoff hole, the par-4 12th. Matt Parziale, the 2017 champion who birdied four of his last five holes at Blue Mound on Monday afternoon to get into the playoff, also advanced, along with Austin Spicer, an alternate who got into the field early last week when Gene Elliott withdrew.

Last-minute alternate Jeff Hamm, of Walnut Creek, Calif., received an early 33rd birthday present by qualifying for match play at even-par 141. The reinstated amateur who underwent chemotherapy last year for lymphoma accomplished this without the benefit of a practice round. Hamm, a member of The Olympic Club who played briefly on PGA Tour Canada after graduating from the University of California-Berkeley in 2012, found out he was in the field at 4 a.m. PDT last Friday. Hamm’s college teammate, Stephen Hale, also qualified for match play with a 1-under 140 total.

Scott Harvey, the 2014 champion, played 2-under golf over his final nine holes at Blue Mound to qualify at 2-over 143.

After Chris Dukeminier missed the cut with a disappointing 80 at Blue Mound on Monday afternoon, he jumped on the bag of younger brother, Jack, who had yet to start his second round. Jack, 33, who missed the cut in last month’s U.S. Amateur in New Jersey, also fell short of match play here, by one stroke with a 36-hole total of 145.

Michael McCoy, the 2013 champion who is the oldest player in the field at 59, qualified for match play for the first time in seven years. McCoy, whose son Nate, failed to advance, won this year’s British Senior Amateur and Florida State Senior Amateur, and advanced to the Round of 16 in last month’s U.S. Senior Amateur.

Tom Werkmeister, a semifinalist in the 2014 U.S. Mid-Amateur who has since turned professional, is serving as the caddie for playoff survivor and fellow Michigan resident John Quigley. Werkmeister qualified for the U.S. Senior Open in both 2018 and 2019. Quigley faced No. 4 seed Andrew Bailey.

Notables who failed to qualify for match play included four-time champion Nathan Smith, 2019 champion Lukas Michel, 2019 runner-up Joseph Deraney, 2011 runner-up Kenny Cook, 2013 runner-up Bill Williamson, 2018 runner-up Brett Boner, 2007 U.S. Amateur Public Links runner-up Cody Paladino, and two sons of PGA Tour winners: John Reid, son of Mike “Radar” Reid and Raymond Floyd, whose Hall-of-Fame father, also named Raymond, won the 1986 U.S. Open, 1976 Masters and two PGA Championships (1968, 1982). John Sawin, the director of golf at Pebble Beach Golf Links, site of the 2023 U.S. Women’s Open Presented by ProMedica, also failed to advance.

Quotable

“I’ve been playing well this summer. I would have been disappointed if I didn’t get to match play. Match play is kind of a crapshoot. I have probably met my expectations now. It’s just a joy to be here.” – Thomas McCarthy after his Round-of-64 win over Jack Schultz

“It was better news than when we were playing [Saturday], when we found out that A&M football lost [to Appalachian State]. Definitely the two sides of the spectrum.” – Andrew Paysse when he was told his younger brother won the Badger Invitational on Tuesday

“It was a goal. I’ve been playing well. I did want to make match play one more time.” – 2013 champion and 2023 USA Walker Cup captain Michael McCoy on qualifying for match play as the oldest player in the field

“It was four days for the two rounds and some uncomfortable waits, but I am glad to get it done.” – Hugh Foley after finishing 5-under 136 in stroke play

“Working [as a McDonald’s franchise owner] and having a 3-month-old, I have no time for golf anymore… I’m fortunate that one of our restaurants is right near the course, so I go to work, then go hit a few balls [on my break] and then go back to work.” – Jeff Hamm (even-par 141), the last player into the field, who arrived just in time on Saturday after a last-minute withdrawal

Results from Tuesday's weather-delayed second round of stroke play at the 2022 U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship, played at the 7,309-yard, par-71 Erin Hills, in Erin, Wis., and 6,766-yard, par-70 Blue Mound Golf & Country Club, in Wauwatosa, Wis.
