James Piot looks to join summer Sparty party at U.S. Amateur

It’s not like James Piot needs any motivation entering this week’s U.S. Amateur. The Michigan State stud golfer has been thinking about it for almost a full year, after he finished runner-up in stroke play in 2020, only to be eliminated in his second match. He gets his crack at redemption starting Monday, at historic Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania — just two days after Michigan State sophomore-to-be Valentina Rossi made the semifinals of the U.S. Women’s Amateur, before falling on the 18th hole.
