TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – Alabama rising sophomore Davis Riley will hope to continue his stellar play this summer when he competes at the 2016 United States Amateur championship, which will be held Aug. 15-21 at the Oakland Hills Country Club in Bloomfield, Mich.
Riley will have a familiar face alongside as Crimson Tide men's golf coach Jay Seawell will serve as his caddy throughout the tournament.
The event features a field of 312 golfers that is cut to the top 64 following two days of stroke play. Those 64 move on to single-elimination match play culminating in a 36-hole championship match.
