LIVERMORE, Calif. — BYU men’s golfer Drake Harvey shot a 2-under 278 to tie for 24th among 109 players Friday at the 2026 Pacific Coast Amateur Championship at Poppy Ridge Golf Course.
Harvey began the opening round with a birdie on No. 1 before bogeys on Nos. 2, 3 and 5 set him back. Birdies on Nos. 7 and 9 and a bogey on No. 8 left him 1 over at the turn. He added birdies on Nos. 12, 17 and 18 and bogeys on Nos. 14 and 15 to finish with an even-par 70.
In the second round, Harvey opened with a birdie on No. 1 and followed with bogeys on Nos. 6 and 9. He made two birdies on the back nine to card a 1-under 69.
Harvey offset a bogey on No. 2 with a birdie on No. 3 in the third round before adding bogeys on Nos. 5 and 8. The incoming freshman carded another bogey on No. 14 and a birdie on No. 16 to finish with a 2-over 72.
“I definitely left some shots out there, but I’m kind of exhausted from all the tournaments I’ve played,” Harvey said. “I’m not proud of the result, but I stayed in it and remained positive.”
Despite the difficult third round, Harvey narrowly made the cut into the field of 50 and ties by one stroke.
Harvey delivered his best performance of the championship in the final round, shooting a 3-under 67. He recorded birdies on Nos. 7, 10, 16 and 18, with his only bogey coming on No. 14, to climb 23 spots on the final leaderboard.
Transfer David Liechty also competed in the event, finishing 2 over through three rounds and missing the cut by one stroke.
USC golfer Jaden Dumdumaya won the championship at 12 under with a four-round total of 268.
