At an impressive 15-under, NcNary finished T5 at a historic event won by PGA TOUR winners Paul Goydos and Xander Schauffele
Trevor McNary, of Whittier, California, fired rounds of 65-67-68-69, finishing 15-under par to finish T5 at the Long Beach Open at El Dorado Park in Long Beach, Calif., earning low amateur honors at the historic event. Surrounded by professionals on the leaderboard, McNary was one of five amateurs in the top 30 and the only one in the top 10.
McNary played four years of college golf at California State Fullerton, which was well-represented at this year’s Long Beach Open.
Fellow Cal State Fullerton teammates Tegan Andrews and Patrick Orodonez made the cut, with Andrews finishing T14 and Orodonez finishing T33, earning 2nd and 5th place in the amateur division. Matthew Schaefer, who earned low amateur honors last year but missed the cut this year, is also a Cal State Fullerton team member.
Other amateurs to make the cut include Clay Seeber, who finished T14, Jin Nakao at T18, Jack Cantlay at T36, Brandon Fahrny at T36, Nathan Tseng at T51, Sebastian Vallejo at T54, Johnny Saunders at T54, Torey Edwards at T54, and Troy McNary at T59, Trevor's younger brother.
The Long Beach Open is a fixture in the California golf community. It serves as the flagship event in the Long Beach Golf Festival, the largest and longest-running series of independent golf championships in America.
First held in 1923, the inaugural champion was the legendary Walter Hagen. Past champions include PGA TOUR winners like Fred Couples, Mark O’Meara, Craig Stadler, Peter Jacobsen, Scott McCarron, Dennis Paulson, Xander Schauffele, and Long Beach native Paul Goydos.
Aaron Grimes, 30, won the event with rounds of 68-64-68-66, finishing tied for 1st at 18-under par. He won the first playoff hole, earning the victory and a $19,000 paycheck.
One of the few independently run professional events with an incredible purse, the tournament attracts many talented young professionals. Amateurs are always welcome to play, allowing them to test their games against professional golfers.
McNary passed the test with flying colors.
