Despite a promising start at the U.S. Amateur Golf Championships in Minnesota, Robbie Greenwell couldn't sustain it for two full rounds and missed out on qualifying for the match play segment of the tournament. Greenwell, a 20year-old University of Memphis junior, was at three-underpar at one point and turned in an even-par 71 in Monday's opening round on the Town Chaska Course, looking in good shape to earn one of the 64 spots in the match play, which begins today (Wednesday). Facing the famed Hazeltine National Golf Club course on Tuesday, the North Halton Golf and Country Club golfer was two over par through the front nine, then had five bogeys on the back to finish up at seven-over 150, well back of the qualifiers. The field this week began with 312 amateurs vying for the 111-yearold title.
