When the week began, there were five amateurs in the field of the 2024 Masters.
As the weekend begins, only one remains.
The second round at Augusta National Golf Club concluded Friday, which means it was time for the 36-hole cut. However, only one amateur is heading to the weekend, and that carries a big honor.
Come Sunday, Neal Shipley, a graduate student at Ohio State, will receive the Silver Cup and get to sit next to the champion in Butler Cabin after the conclusion of play, rewards for earning Low Amateur honors at the Masters. A stellar performance during the first round helped the U.S. Amateur runner-up earn weekend plans at Augusta National.
