SOUTHPORT, England — Oklahoma State rising senior Jordan Niebrugge qualified for The Open Championship this week after advancing through the final qualifying stage at Hillside Golf Club.
Niebrugge posted scores of 69 and 72 at the par-72, 7,029-yard layout to share first place with Scott Arnold and Pelle Edberg. The trio all earned qualifying spots in the field at St. Andrews later this month. The 144th Open Championship will take place July 12-19.
For the Mequon, Wis., native, it will be his first start at a major championship since competing at The Masters in 2014. Niebrugge will be the first Cowboy to compete at The Open as an amateur since Peter Uihlein tied for 48th place in 2011 at Royal St. George's.
