AUBURN, Ala. – Six members of the 2020-21 Auburn men's golf team are set to participate in the 2020 U.S. Amateur, Aug. 10-16. Graysen Huff, Andrew Kozan, Brandon Mancheno, Wells Padgett, Jovan Rebula and Alex Vogelsong are among the 264 golfers in the 120th installment of the annual event.

In addition, former Tiger Brett Boner is also scheduled to take part in the U.S. Amateur.

After two rounds of stroke play in as many days, the 264-person field is trimmed to 64 for match play to decide the champion.

The winner of the event is set to earn exemption from qualifying for the next 10 U.S. Amateurs, as well as exemption into the 2021 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines and 2021 Open Championship. The winner is also likely to receive an invitation into the 2021 Masters Tournament.

NBCUniversal is scheduled to broadcast 15 hours of live uninterrupted action throughout the week. The broadcasts, which will air on NBCUniversal's new streaming service Peacock and Golf Channel, is part of NBC Sports' new partnership with the USGA.
