MILTON, Ont. — Highly-touted amateur Chris Crisologo is just one of the Canadians that will be in the field at a sectional qualifier for the U.S. Open at Rattlesnake Point in Milton, Ont., on Monday.

The 23-year-old Crisologo, from Richmond, B.C., is the youngest golfer on Canada’s national men’s team.

The 38-player, two-round tournament will be played in one day, with spots in the U.S. Open at stake.

PGA Tour players David Hearn of Brantford, Ont., Ben Silverman of Thornhill, Ont., and Adam Svensson of Surrey, B.C., will also compete.

The Canadian contingent will be rounded out by Cougar Collins of Caledon, Ont., Max Gilbert of St-Georges, Que., Zach Giusti of Aurora, Ont., amateur Brendan Seys of Port Lambton, Ont., Toronto’s Sebastian Szirmak and amateur Luc Warnock of McGregor, Ont.

Crisologo, Hearn, Silverman and Svensson will also play in this week’s RBC Canadian Open at Hamilton Golf and Country Club, which begins play on Thursday.

The U.S. Open will be held June 13-15 at Pebble Beach Golf Links in California.
