Georgia teenager Mason Howell wins US Amateur, youngest champion since 2009
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Georgia teenager Mason Howell capped a productive summer before his senior year of high school by winning the U.S. Amateur at The Olympic Club on Sunday just two months after competing in his first U.S. Open. The 18-year-old Howell raced out to a big lead over Tennessee teenager Jackson Herrington on the opening 18 holes and went on to win the 36-hole final 7 and 6 to become the youngest U.S. Amateur champion since Byeong Hun An won at age 17 in 2009 at Southern Hills in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Howell won it with a par to halve the 30th hole, ending the most-lopsided final since Bryson DeChambeau also beat Derek Bard 7 and 6 in 2015. The win earned Howell invitations to the Masters, U.S. Open and British Open next year. This was the first U.S. Amateur final featuring two teenagers since Matt Fitzpatrick bested Oliver Goss in 2013 and Howell showed the composure of a much more experienced golfer by repeatedly making clutch putts while Herrington made repeated mistakes. Howell won 11 holes, eight of them with pars. He also responded after all four holes he lost, winning the following hole each time. Howell burst onto the scene when he qualified for the U.S. Open this year with rounds of 63-63 from the Atlanta sectional. He failed to make the cut at Oakmont but used that experience this week at The Olympic Club. He was one of 17 players to advance from a 20-man playoff to make the match play portion of the tournament, where he won all six matches. Howell won five of six holes on the front nine of the opening 18 holes — including an eagle at No. 7 — to take a four-hole lead. He increased the lead to five with a birdie on the par-5 16th hole as his steady putting helped keep Herrington at bay. Herrington closed the first 18 with a birdie on the par-5 18th to get back within four. But he then bogeyed the first three holes after the lunch break to fall down by six and never really threatened the rest of the way. Howell now gets ready for his senior year of high school before he is set to start college at the University of Georgia in 2026. The 19-year-old Herrington is about to start his sophomore season in college at Tennessee. This is the fourth U.S. Amateur to be held at The Olympic Club. Charles Coe (1958), Nathaniel Crosby (1981) and Cole Knost (2007) won the others. ___ AP golf:

Meet the 10 members of the 2025 United States Walker Cup team
The roster for the 2025 United States Walker Cup team is set. Following the conclusion of the 125th U.S. Amateur on Sunday, the U.S. Golf Association's International Team Selection working group and captain Nathan Smith announced the final selections to represent the American team in the 50th Walker Cup at Cypress Point Club in California from Sept. 6-7. Five players were previously announced, with the last five players earning their spot on the team after the U.S. Amateur The Walker Cup is a 10-man amateur team competition between the U.S. and Great Britain and Ireland. Cypress Point has hosted one previous Walker Cup in 1981, a 15-9 victory for the United States. The U.S. leads the all-time series 39-9-1 and will likely be a heavy favorite at Cypress Point. Meet the 10 members of the 2025 U.S. Walker Cup team. Jackson Koivun The top-ranked amateur in the world made the Round of 32 at the U.S. Amateur and has been playing well with three top-11 finishes or better on the PGA Tour this summer. Ben James James, ranked second in the world, also made the Round of 32 at Olympic Club before losing to Mason Howell, the eventual champion at the U.S. Amateur. This will be James' second Walker Cup. Michael La Sasso La Sasso, ranked eighth in the world, essentially clinched his spot on the team after winning the 2025 NCAA Men's Golf Championship individual title, capping off a stellar junior season at Ole Miss. Preston Stout Stout has had a stellar 2025, winning the Northeast Amateur by eight shots and then making the Round of 16 at the U.S. Amateur after winning medalist honors. He's one of two Oklahoma State players on the team, most of any college. Ethan Fang Fang, a fellow Oklahoma State Cowboy, won the British Amateur earlier this summer at Royal St. George's and made the match-play final at the Western Amateur. He's ranked third in the world. Tommy Morrison Morrison, ranked sixth in the world and towering at 6-foot-8, is a former European Amateur Champion, made match play at the Western Am and lost in the Round of 64 this week to eventual champion/runner-up Howell. Jase Summy Summy, seventh in WAGR, beat Fang in the Western Amateur final to essentially lock up his spot on the Walker Cup team. He made the Round of 32 this week at Olympic Club. Stewart Hagestad The 34-year-old Mid-Amateur will play on his fifth consecutive Walker Cup team, holding a record of 8-6-1 in his appearances and having never lost to GB&I. He and James are the only returners from the 2023 team. Mason Howell The winner of the U.S. Amateur gets an automatic Walker Cup spot if they're not already on the team, so Howell earned his way to Cypress Point after claiming the Havemeyer Trophy at Olympic Club on Sunday. Jacob Modleski Modleski, on the bubble the entire summer, earned his way on the team with a strong week at the Western Amateur (semifinalist) and U.S. Amateur (quarterfinalist).
