  <itunes:subtitle>My guest on this episode of TBO is Noah Kent, a rising sophomore for the Iowa Men's Golf team and also the runner-up in this summer's United States Amateur Championship.  I've known Noah for a few years now, I would see him during the Terra Cotta Invitational in Naples, Florida....which is essentially his hometown tournament.  He had a great freshman campaign at Iowa that included five Top 20 finishes.  

Although he did win both his stages of qualifying for this year's U.S. Amateur at Hazeltine, he came in well below the radar.  And after a first round 77 at Hazeltine in the stroke play portion, it didn't look like Noah would be around for long in Minnesota.  That all changed in a hurry after a 64 at Chaska Town Course, the U.S. Am companion site, that vaulted him into the match play portion of the championship. And that was just the beginning.

During this episode, we spoke about his miracle run all the way into the Championship match against eventual winner Josele Ballester.  We also spoke about his fans, that donned yellow Caitlin Clark t-shirts.  Clark shirts rooting for Kent.....Clark Kent....yes, sometimes the headlines really are too good to be true.</itunes:subtitle>
