On air now! I think. Will try and stream myself in a bit. The schedules below conflict, but you get the idea...

Edit: I was wrong, not on now. Looks like 4pm.

I'm watching it right now. I'm rooting for the Ricky Barnes look-a-like swing-a-like or Taiwan's own Cheng-Tsung Pan.

Thanks for the heads up. I like watching this, alot.

The championship is going on just down the road from me. I thought about heading down there in person, but I couldn't work out a convenient time to go.

I think it's on until Saturday or Sunday. I'd recommend going. It'll be pretty cool & get to see some future stars of golf.

Some 36 year old dude has reached the quarterfinals. Would be pretty interesting if he went further.

He has a full time job - desk jockey. Yay "old" guys, ha ha flat bellies. http://golfweek.com/news/2014/aug/14/amateur-golf-nathan-smith-us-amateur-round-32/

Assuming you are talking about two time Mid Amateur Champion, two time (3 time?) Walker Cup player Nathan Smith from Pittsburgh. He's a +4 handicap and can really play.

This is what's great about almost everyone having a video camera on their person.

Gunn Yang claimed the US Amateur on the 35th hole. Koreans seem to kick ass in the US AM. Danny Lee & Byeong Han An both won. Neither have done jack shit since.

Yep. Yang looked like he hit the ball a long ways, though. Which I think Danny Lee did too. It will be interesting to see how he progresses.

Yang ranked 776, had back surgery 15 months ago, recently lost scholarship to San Diego State. Boom! Wins amateur. All is well. Talk about highs and lows. http://mobile.golfweek.com/news/2014/aug/17/amateur-golf-gunn-yang-wins-2014-us-amateur/?templates=mobile http://www.golfchannel.com/news/ryan-lavner/yang-completes-improbable-journey-us-am-title/
