Gainesville High rising sophomore Spencer Ralston won the US Junior Amateur qualifier Monday in Athens, earning a spot in the US Junior Amateur Championship July 22-27 in Truckee, Calif.
Spencer Ralston has a way of persevering through the ups and downs that come with a long day on the golf course. Playing 36 holes at 1-over par in the US Junior Amateur qualifier on Monday, the rising Gainesville High sophomore minimized damage to his scorecard from wayward shots off the tee and less-than-perfect approach shots with great greens play to capture the win at the University of Georgia Course in Athens. “I was putting and chipping out of my mind,” Ralston said about his marathon day of golf.
