You could make the case that Chung has been the best amateur in the country this summer.  He won the Porter Cup and the Western Amateur and now has made the semi-finals of the US Amateur.

In the semifinals, he will play defending Amateur champ (and soon-to-be Cal freshman) Byeong-Hun An.

Chung - slide - 08-29-2010

is in the finals.  he beat incoming Cal FR An in the semis.  An started off with 4 birdies and an eagle in his first 6 holes and lost.

Chung plays an OK State player -- Uihlein -- that he beat in NCAA match play earlier this year.

a Chung win would cap a phenomenal summer.

Congrats to David Chung.  He is an impressive player and has had a great summer.  Despite being at a considerable disadvantage to Peter Uihlein distance wise in the final, he kept fighting back from an early deficit until finally a last errant tee shot killed his chances.  He and Ben An apparently had a heck of match in the semis...
