NEWTON, Kan. — For the first time at the U.S. Adaptive Open, there has been a cut.
The second round is complete at Sand Creek Station in Kansas, and the field has been reduced to 45 players for Wednesday’s final round, where a men’s and women’s overall champion will be crowned, as well as champions for each impairment category.
The following will advance to the final round on Wednesday: the top 20 overall male players and ties and top three men and ties from each impairment category; and top 10 overall female players and ties and top two women and ties from each impairment category. In addition, any player within five strokes of the leader in their impairment category will make the final day.
This is the second big twist to the championship, which is in its third year. Competitors also had to qualify to get into the 96-player field.
