Overview

• Vogt qualified for the U.S. Open by shooting 8-under par over two rounds at Wine Valley Golf Club in Walla Walla, Washington.
• The 34-year-old caddied at Oakmont Country Club for five seasons and first competed there in the 2021 U.S. Amateur.
• He lost his father, Jim, to colon cancer two months ago and expects the Father’s Day finale to be an emotional experience.
• His unexpected qualification has driven a surge of inquiries to his Indianapolis dental practice and rallied community support.
• After opening practice rounds, Vogt is adapting to Oakmont’s denser rough and lightning-fast greens as he readies for Thursday’s start.
