Lovemark Selected for Walker Cup

Jamie Lovemark with golf icon Jack Nicklaus. Just a few months after tearing up the links as a Freshman, USC's Jamie Lovemark was named to the U.S. Walker Cup squad. He will join seven other American amatuers in defending the cup against Britain and Ireland. Play begins September 8 at the Royal County Down Golf Club in Newcastle, Ireland.

Lovemark will return to the USC this season as the NCAA's defending individual national champion and defending national player of the year. Before joining the Trojans, he was the youngest player to ever win the PGA Western Amateur.

He is the fifth Trojan to make the Walker Cup squad, but first since Sam Randolph in 1985.

Adam Rose learned about the highs and lows of USC athletics while going to school. As a freshman, he watched the football team crash to the bottom of the Pac 10. By the time he was a senior, he was in the stands for a National Championship. In between, he liked to argue points as a member of the Trojan Debate Squad. Nowadays, he's just looking to tell a good story. He is currently Sports Editor for LAist, where he covers a wide range of local action. He can also be seen weekly on KNBC 4's News Raw. Adam manages special events in the sports community when he isn't participating himself (he staggered through the LA Marathon and can often be found on local soccer fields). If you have a question about the Trojans or just want to give him a piece of your mind, email: adam@laist.com.
