Stuart Grehan’s stunning comeback against World No.1 amateur Preston Stout has given Great Britain and Ireland a one-point lead heading into Sunday’s final day at the Walker Cup.
As well as joining a roll of honour of considerable distinction, Grehan’s success also earned him an exemption into the 154th Open at Royal Birkdale next month, the 2027 US Open, and, by tradition, an invitation to play in the Masters Tournament.
