Milford, Ohio amateur Justin Horn, a University of Cincinnati golfer, earned medalist honors yesterday at Pinnacle Golf Club in Grove City, taking the top spot in the U.S. Open Local Qualifier for the Columbus area.
Horn made three birdies and a par-5 eagle against a lone bogey to shoot 4-under par 68, topping the field of 120 players by one shot.
Three players advanced after shooting 3-under par 69: amateur Carson Bellish of Pickerington, who had a clean scorecard with three birdies; Louisville, KY pro Erik Edwards who survived a double-bogey at the par-5 ninth; and former Ohio Open champ TT Crouch of Fredericktown, who made a double of his own on the par-4 17th.
After a four-for-two playoff, professionals Elliott Grayson of Rock Hill, SC and Asaeli Batibasaga from Mount Vernon advanced.
