F-2: Top 10 scorers and ties from the 2024 U.S. Open

The former University of Georgia All-American will make his fourth U.S. Open start after tying for ninth in the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst, the only qualifier to finish among the top 10. That performance propelled Thompson to his maiden PGA Tour victory less than a month later at the John Deere Classic. Thompson turned professional in 2021 and won the 2022 Rex Hospital Open on the Korn Ferry Tour. He earned his PGA Tour card for the 2022-23 season by finishing 16th on the KFT money list, and in January 2023 he was the runner-up to 2021 U.S. Open champion Jon Rahm at The American Express Championship. Thompson reached the Round of 64 in the 2020 U.S. Amateur, shortly after being a quarterfinalist in the Western Amateur. The Golf Coaches Association of America named him a first-team All-America. He was one of five finalists for the Jack Nicklaus Award and one of three finalists for the Haskins Award; both honoring the top player in college golf. He won the 2020 Jones Cup Invitational with a 54-hole, tournament-record score of 13-under 203. The win earned him a start in the 2020 RSM Classic. Thompson also represented the USA in the 2021 Walker Cup and 2020 Palmer Cup.
