My father in law just reached out to me about Lamprecht - not bad to lead the Open as an amateur. And lots of mentions of GT in the other press, as well as some on the broadcast. Nice hat his caddy is rocking!

The towering amateur from South Africa cards a magnificent 5-under opening round to lead at Royal Liverpool.

Amateur Christo Lamprecht stands out for height and play at The Open
The South African, who plays at Georgia Tech and is believed to be the tallest player to ever compete in The Open, wasn't surprised by his opening-round play.
Says he’s coming back for his senior season next year!

He just won the British Amateur a couple of weeks ago. That qualified him into the Open this week, and the 2024 Masters, I think also the US Open next year. That would keep him In school for next year. If he turns pro the Masters invite would be withdrawn. He really found his game this summer. I hope he plays well the rest of the tournament.Amateur Christo Lamprecht stands out for height and play at The Open

5 over through 8 is not a good look! Hope he settles down and makes the cut. That would be impressive in and of itself.

Needs a birdie somewhere or he’s on the ropes now.

Bogie on the last puts him at 3-over.....Not sure where the line is going to be, but announcers have been bouncing between 2- and 3-over as the cut line. I am not sure how the cut line is determined here. 2-over currently is tie for 47 and 3-over is tie for 68. He may end up missing by one stroke.

Looks like Lamprecht finished with a 79 on day 2 after the 66 on day 1, which leaves him currently tied for 67th.
that he doesn't miss the cut by 1 - that would suck.
