Gallery: Ross Steelman at 2021 U.S. Amateur

Georgia Tech junior Ross Steelman made a strong bid to keep the Havemeyer Trophy on The Flats earlier this month by making it all the way to the quarterfinals of the U.S. Amateur at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pa., where he fell to Austin Greaser, 2 and 1, Steelman reached the quarters by eliminating the world’s No. 5-ranked amateur, Gators’ junior Ricky Castillo, who was seeded 33^rd, by a 3 and 2 score.

Prior to that, Steelman defeated the world’s No. 30-ranked amateur, Louis Dobbelaar of Australia, in the Round of 64, and eliminated Auburn junior J.M. Butler in the Round of 32. His performance this week left Steelman confident and optimistic about joining his new team this fall.
