Men's Golf - Ranked #8

I've always wondered why we don't dominate in golf like we do most other Olympic sports. The NC region is so full of great golf resources and courses, it seems like we should have no trouble being a powerhouse.
 
There will be multiple Tar Heels among the field of golfers at the U.S. Open later this month. Ryan Gerard earned a spot in the event by tying for first place in a qualifier tournament in Jupiter, FL, earlier this week. Gerard will join teammate Austin Greaser, who qualified for the U.S. Open with his runner-up finish in last summer’s U.S. Amateur Championship. (Chapelboro.com)
