Advertiser Staff
Little did Dean Wilson know when he finished his round hours ahead most of the field that he would make the cut at the U.S. Open.The projected trim — top 60 players and ties in the 156-player field in Oakmont, Pa. — was at 5-over when the day started.
Wilson was at 10-over.
He shot a 4-over 74 today, which included a bogey on the final hole.
But as the day progressed and the scores soared, so did the cut line.
At the end of the round the cut was 10-over and Wilson made it through, advancing to play on the weekend.
Wilson had a roller-coaster round. He carded a double bogey on the third hole. He followed that with successive birdies only to follow with back-to-back bogeys for a 2-over 37 on the front nine.
He bogeyed the 10th and 12th holes before recording a birdie on the par-3 13th. He closed with a bogey on No. 18 for a back-nine total of 2-over 37.
Wilson, a former Kane'ohe resident and Castle High alum, shot 6-over 76 yesterday.
