Sam Bennett made history after winning the 2022 U.S Amateur
The 2022 U.S Amateur Championship involved lots of drama as several promising young golfers went toe-to-toe with each other.
Sam Bennett advanced to the final round at the Ridgewood Country Club and defeated Ben Carr by just one stroke to take home the iconic trophy. He also became the first player in Texas A&M history to win the U.S. Amateurs making his win even more special.
Bennett was also exempted from qualifying at the 2023 Masters Tournament and the 2023 Open Championship after victory at the U.S. Amateurs. He has done pretty well in the PGA Tour since joining. He finished 16th at the Masters Tournament while being 63rd in the Memorial Tournament.
The American golfer also spoke about the difference between being a pro and an amateur while featuring on the podcast on Sirius XM:
"Not really, I mean, obviously, I mean you didn't get paid but other than that same approach, and luckily enough, I was able to get some starts as an amateur that prepared me for when I get out here as a pro."
Sam Bennett is now hoping to build on his historic win.
