Marc Ehudin had to wait more than seven hours on Sunday to see if he had reached the match play portion of the U.S. Senior Amateur Championship at Baltimore Country Club in Lutherville.
The wait is over — temporarily.
Ehudin, a Pikesville native and Gilman graduate who now lives in Potomac, learned he will take part in a playoff to determine whether he will be among the top 64 golfers in the match play round. He and 12 others will compete for three spots on Monday at 7:30 a.m. beginning at Hole No. 9 on the East Course.
"To not know where I stood the entire day and then find out, 'OK, I've got to kick it back into gear tomorrow and focus and get ready to play again,' I've got some mental adjusting to do tonight, but I will be very excited tomorrow," said Ehudin, who turned 63 last Monday. "This is a really new experience for me. Didn't get this far two years ago. So a mixture of wishing I had done better yesterday and excitement for what could be tomorrow. We'll see."
Ehudin carded a 5-over 75 on Sunday after opening with a 6-over 76 on Saturday for a two-day total of 11-over 151. That put him on the bubble until about 7 p.m. when he learned he was tied for 62nd.
