Neal Lancaster qualified for his second U.S. Senior Open by carding a 67 in sectional play in Greensboro, N.C.. Lancaster twice shot 29 over nine holes in a U.S. Open. He fired a championship-record 29 on the inward nine in the fourth round of the 1995 Open at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club and accomplished the feat again the following year in the second round at Oakland Hills Country Club. Only Vijay Singh (2003) has matched Lancaster’s record. Day and Jeff Gallagher were the top finishers among sectional qualifiers at last year’s U.S. Senior Open, tying for 18th. Day won the PGA Tour’s MCI Classic in 1999 and Gallagher won twice on the Nationwide Tour (now Web.com Tour). Note: In 2002, Don Pooley was the last player to win the U.S. Senior Open as a sectional qualifier.
