After 18 holes of the AmateurGolf.com 2025 Silicon Valley Amateur, presented by Callaway Golf, at Stanford University Golf Course in Palo Alto, Calif.,
Nathan Wang of Fremont, Calif., and
Edan Cui of Atherton, Calif., are tied for the lead at 4-under.
Wang and Cui each recorded four birdies, two bogeys and an eagle. Wang eagled the par-5 No. 7, while Cui holed out for an eagle on the par-4 No. 7.
"Pretty smooth," Wang said about his round. "This was my first tournament back from our last event in the fall, so it was nice to get some competitive reps in and get the juices flowing."
Cui is familiar with AmateurGolf.com events, as he won the 2023 AGC Pacific Grove and the 2024 Christmas Classic.
"I'm really looking forward to it," Cui said about the final round. "We (Cui and Wang) have played together quite a few times and share the same trainer. I think the last time we played, I beat him, so he will probably be looking for revenge. But it will be a good battle, and I'm looking forward to it."
Ethan Gao of Jones Creek, Ga., is in solo third place at 2-under, and Eli Weidmann of Murphys, Calif., and Ethan Lien of Cupertino, Calif., are T4 at 1-under to round out the top five.
In the Senior Championship Division, Tony Ralph of Sunnyvale, Calif., leads by two shots at 1-over.
Jeff Britton of Carmel, Calif., is in solo second place at 3-over, and Jim Williams of Orinda, Calif., and Thomas Renli of Scottsdale, Ariz., are T3 at 4-over.

2025 TOUR
PORTAL
The Silicon Valley Amateur is the first
AmateurGolf.com
tournament to have, on its past winner's list, a
MAJOR
champion. That would be Collin Morikawa, who
won
the
2016 title. Just over four years later, he won
the
PGA
Championship just up the road at TPC Harding Park
in San Francisco. Multiple PGA Tour star and
Morikawa's
fellow 2023 USA Ryder Cup team member Max Homa
also
won the
Silicon
Valley Amateur
in 2011.
For 2024, the tournament is moving to a new venue
--
Stanford University Golf Course. Tournament players
will relish competing at a course normally reserved
for
university students and faculty.
Please note that
we will
play on Monday and Tuesday, and expect this event
will
fill very quickly.
