US Open 2025: Matt Vaget dentist qualifier admits that the possibility of playing in the event was “ABSOLUTE PIPE DREAM” | Golf news

The US Open shock, Matt Vouge, says that dental action has received “tons of inquiries” since he made this week’s field in Oakmont, where the amateur golf player was reflected in the “absolute tube dream” in playing in the custom.

In a story story from the final events last week, Vogt ended 34 years old – ranked 1,173 in the world’s amateur rankings – eight under two rounds to win in Washington and secure a place for the first time in one of them.

The qualification for OakMont is of special importance for VOGT, given that he grew up half an hour from the training course in Pittsburg and gathered there for five years.

Since 2018, Vogt has managed his own dental practice in Indianapolis, and asked his appearance at the press conference before the event on Monday about whether he had received more calls since his open place in the United States, he answered: “I think they got a lot of inquiries.

“I got such a wonderful team, and I have friends who help me in all these messages and inquiries, and they said:” Hey, guys, guiding them to Chris, my friend, and make sure that you focus on the patients because this is what we do in McCardusville, Indiana. “

“It was a lot of fun, some of the patients who communicate with dentists. I feel that there are many people behind this week – Oakmont, Pittsburgh, Dentistry – it was fun.

“Frankly, from the perspective of work, this is not what is going on around it. We try to take care of people well, and if that brings us more great patients we can help them, wonderful. He will give us something we are talking about, perhaps in the office and around the office.”

Vogt admitted that although last week “it seems three years ago about six days,” the entire experiment was proving “incredible”.

“This means a lot,” he said about appearing in a specialty very close to his city.

“Frankly, with the restoration work here in Oakmont and everything that happens with the open, I am trying to pay attention to it because I knew it was an absolute dream to get here.

“It is the best positives in the world, not to mention amateurs. So I didn’t want to think a lot.

“I am still trying to like everything, but also I don’t feel very passionate about it because it is incredible. I mean, as we sit now not far from the place where I sat in the Caddy Square waiting for people on the scale, or we were walking in this path to this path to Caddy Shack directly outside the club – or outside the professional store.

“Even when I am talking about it now, I feel passionate. This place means a lot for me.”

“I have never got it” – I was raised on a unconventional golf trip

While the box in Oakmont, Vogt said he was able to play the course on the two nights, despite his confession: “I mean, think about it now, we should have been here every Monday, but I was lying if I said that we were.”

After years, after completing the first training round, he noticed a major change when he returned.

“The coarse is about four inches higher, five inches higher. The bulk is the largest part,” he said.

“This course is very good throughout the year, and roughness is the biggest change or the biggest thing I noticed.

“When you are also here, you don’t really watch the golf course in a lens like a golf at the round level, so this was also interesting. I wander around and think how to play the golf field now at this stage of my life, so this was a little change.

“I know everything that is happening, but not on the level of details you need to play in the US Open.

“It was a few days mentally stressful, I just started learning the golf course a little.”

On the golf trip to this point, Vaght narrated: “I had no aspirations to play a professional golf. I feel even in the novice golf game, just as I was good.

“Frankly, I may not dream of enough enough or perhaps, I don’t know, I have never got it. I played about many players you could say and had a chance to make Golf Professional.

“I have now said this several times in some interviews, but trying to follow the amateur golf game, in an attempt to compete at any level it is and reach what level I can reach, it is like a challenge to myself almost, like what we can do?

“I don’t know what this. I don’t have a specific goal this week. I don’t have expectations, and I don’t have the same to go forward. It’s what is possible.

“Everything is because I love the golf so much. I love the people you are communicating with. I love the places where it ends. This is frankly what is going on around me at this stage.”

Vogue plays in the first two months of his father, Jim, due to 65 -year -old colon cancer.

“I have a 15 -month -old daughter now, and everyone knows about the death of my last father, so even the past few months, I feel that, in some way, I went from a boy to a man and like maturity as a person and a father.”

“So the most wonderful part is to see children there. They may know who I am, and they may not do it. They only know that I play the golf game inside the ropes, and you may think about doing so one day or just chasing their dreams. Maybe they are here with their fathers and play memories and experiences.

“It is a real honor to be part of that, to see only such children, and I think, they have created a good impression on them here at the golf course.”
