VARIOUS LOCATIONS, United States
(August 28, 2014) -- Qualifying is well
underway for the U.S. Senior Amateur, being
played at Newport Beach, California's Big
Canyon Country Club. It's a gorgeous and
challenging course designed by Robert Muir
Graves in 1971 with renovations overseen by
John Harbottle III in 1998. Tiger Woods (who is
now an honorary member of the club) shot 61-
65 to open
the 1996 Pac 10 Championship, setting a then-
record tournament scoring mark of 18-under.

Longtime golf writer Randy Youngman, in a California Golf News story, called Tiger's day of golf (they played 36 holes on the first day) one of the greatest he has ever seen.
"When he was a Stanford sophomore, Tiger shot 61-65 at Big Canyon, where he was and still is an honorary member, to kick-start his runaway to medalist honors in the 1996 Pac-10 Championship. It was an awe-inspiring display of shot-making and athleticism, because he broke the previous course record of 66 twice in the same day while carrying his own bag up and down the hilly terrain at Big Canyon in the sweltering heat."
In September, senior players won't have to worry about walking (unless they want to) as carts are allowed in both USGA Senior championships. But for their caddies, no such luck. They will be required to walk unless a special request has been granted. Following are results through August 27:
