Florida State men’s golf rising junior Tyler Weaver qualified for the 125th U.S. Open on Monday. Weaver will make his major championship debut at the Oakmont Country Club in Pittsburgh, June 12-15.
With five qualifying spots up for grabs at the Piedmont Driving Club in Atlanta during Golf’s Longest Day, Weaver finished tied for third at 11-under, one stroke above the cutline.
Weaver opened the day shooting 67 in his first 18 holes, sitting at 5-under and tied for sixth place. In the second round, Weaver birdied four holes in a row, climbing up the leaderboard and into a qualifying spot after the 11th hole. He finished the round with eight birdies, carding 66.
Weaver becomes the fourth amateur to qualify for a major since 2020, joining John Pak, Luke Clanton, and Frederik Kjettrup.
Weaver finished his sophomore season ranked 27th in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. In 12 starts, Weaver produced six top 10 finishes, including a victory at the 2025 Cabo Collegiate. He was the runner-up at the 2025 ACC Championship and a PING All-America honorable mention.
The Newmarket, England native, will play in the Arnold Palmer Cup, running from June 5-7 at the Congaree Golf Club.
Two additional Florida State alums will be in the field. Daniel Berger will be making his 10th U.S. Open start and second at Oakmont, while two-time champion Brooks Koepka will be making his 12th.
