F-21: Top 60 points leaders and ties from the current Official World Golf Ranking, as of May 19
Spaun is set to make his second U.S. Open start, and first since missing the cut at Torrey Pines in 2021, thanks to being among the top 60 points leaders in the Official World Golf Ranking as of May 19. The Los Angeles native owns four professional wins, including the 2022 Valero Texas Open. Spaun rose up the rankings this year after losing to Rory McIlroy in a three-hole aggregate playoff at The Players Championship, and tying for second at the Cognizant Classic in The Palm Beaches. Spaun attended San Diego State, where he was a two-time All-Mountain West Conference selection, and the 2012 MWC Player of the Year. He also was a second-team All-American in 2012. He played his first three professional seasons on PGA Tour Canada and when he finished among the top 3 on the circuit's Order of Merit in 2015 that included one victory, he earned his first start on the PGA Tour (RBC Canadian Open). In 2016 he won the News Sentinel Open on the Web.com Tour (now Korn Ferry Tour), which locked up his PGA Tour card for 2017.
