Seminole Moment: FSU's Whaley Wins U. S. Amateur The 126th U. S.
Amateur Championship has concluded at Merion Golf Club in Philadelphia, with English golfer Jack Whaley emerging victorious as the first English amateur to win the tournament since Matt Fitzpatrick at Brookline in 2013.
Whaley's victory is significant not only for his country but also for the city of Philadelphia, which had seen its reputation as a hub for professional golf waning.
