Tabuena qualified for his first U.S. Open after firing an 11-under total to earn medalist honors at the Lake Merced sectional.
ANALYSIS
Tabuena dominated the field at the Lake Merced sectional, carding two eagles and 10 birdies relative to only two bogeys. The 21-year-old is currently the number three player on the Asian Tour and sits as the No.127 golfer in the world. He's a risky play for the U.S. Open, but has the incredible potential to go low, so he could be worth a flier pick.
