Amateur golfer Beau Hossler has turned the U.S. Open on its head Friday afternoon, taking the lead over the likes of Tigers Woods and Jim Furyk.

And he’s only 17 years old!

Yes, you read that right. Whether his excellent play holds up or not, one can say that a high school senior was leading the Open on one its toughest courses, the Olympic Club.

So, who is Beau Hossler? He’s a kid from Mission Viejo, in Orange County. He currently goes to Santa Margarita High. And he’s going to University of Texas next year. No word on who he took to the prom.

The weird thing is that this isn’t Hossler’s first trip to golf’s biggest rodeo.

He played the Open at Congressional last year as a 16-year-old! He shot 76-77 and missed the cut, but apparently the experienced he gained is working out.

Hossler is the first youngster since 1950 to qualify for two straight Opens. And he did it right here in San Francisco, getting through sectional qualifying at Harking and Lake Merced.
