Did Christo Lamprecht make the cut at the Open Championship 2023? Breakout amateur golfer’s standing explored

Christo Lamprecht managed to make the cut at the Open Championship 2023 after shooting an 8-over 79 on Friday, July 21st, resulting in an overall score of 3-over.

Amateur champion Lamprecht experienced two extremely contrasting days at the Royal Liverpool. The young golfer finished as the joint first-round leader on Thursday after a 65 but struggled to find his feet the following day.

The 22-year-old South African began the second day with a bogey and continued to struggle, making four more bogeys in the next six holes. The back nine was no better, as he ended up making three more bogeys. Conversely, he couldn't manage to make a single birdie during the Friday round.

For the uninitiated, Lamprecht had earned the invitation for this year's Open Championship and next year's Masters and US Open after triumphing at the Amateur Championship last month. He had beaten Ronan Kleu of Switzerland by 3-and-2 to become the third South African Amateur Champion in the past six years.
