Overview
- After two rounds of stroke play at Saucon Valley Country Club, the top 64 advanced to match play and the Round of 64 is now underway.
- Miles Russell finished as a co-medalist at 6-under following a 66 on Tuesday and enters match play as one of the top seeds.
- Charlie Woods rebounded from a 76 in Round 1 with a 70 to reach a multi-player playoff but was eliminated when he bogeyed the first playoff hole.
- Defending champion Hamilton Coleman missed the cut at 8-over, the first defending U.S. Junior champion to miss the cut in USGA records going back to 2002.
- The U.S. Junior now awards the Tiger Woods Trophy and the winner will receive USGA exemptions, a connection that adds legacy weight to this week for young players and college recruits.
