At 17, Mariemont High School senior-to-be Will Grimmer teed off with golf’s greatest players at the U.S Open at Pinehurst Country Club.
And Wall Street has taken notice of the story.
John Hancock, a well-known financial services firm, endorsed a Tweet regarding Grimmer.
Grimmer missed the cut, but shot 7-over-par 70 on day one, followed by a second-round of 80. Cincinnati Enquirer columnist summed up the feelings of both kids and their adult peers in an article that’s definitely worth a read.
Props to Grimmer though, who Tweeted throughout the week and looked like he was having the time of his life. He hopes to be back, and I wouldn’t best against him.
