Of all the roads traveled by the 156-player field to the US Open, arguably none have been quite as turbulent as the one navigated by Corey Pereira
When the American tees off at Los Angeles Country Club on Thursday, it will mark his first ever swing at a major. Incredibly, it will also be the first shot he has hit at a tour event in 306 days. Because while his fellow golfers were grinding their way around the various professional circuits, Pereira had other priorities. In October 2022, the 28-year-old’s girlfriend Leah Bertuccelli was diagnosed with cancer.
’ “All those emotions of me playing my first US Open, her battles, everything we’ve gone through as a couple, as a family this year, to just have this bright spot. With two rounds of chemo left, I think it’s really helping her get over that last hump.” ‘Golf’s not life’ Despite his tournament rustiness compared to his competitors, Pereira stamped his ticket to the 123rd edition of the major with a superb performance at his final stage qualifier in Ohio earlier this month.
