LIV Golf: Sergio Garcia hopes for a 'little miracle' at the US Open after missing cut

Sergio Garcia said he was proud of his US Open run despite falling short of qualifying this year by just one stroke. However, he mentioned holding out hope for a "little miracle" that might still get him into the field.

On Monday, May 19, the Spanish veteran competed at the US Open Final Qualifying at Bent Tree Country Club in Dallas. He began with a strong 65 but missed out on a top-7 finish after shooting a 71 in the second round, falling one shot short of qualification.

On Thursday, May 22, Sergio Garcia shared his thoughts on narrowly missing out on a spot in this year’s US Open.

"Unfortunately after failing to qualify on Monday by one shot, looks like my run of 25 consecutive US Open Championships might come to an end this year, unless a little miracle happens. Very proud of this amazing run that I had at this great Major!" he wrote.
