The winner of the U.S. Amateur earns, among other things, exemptions to compete in the Masters, U.S. Open and the Open Championship, provided they retain their amateur status.
A Downingtown, Pennsylvania native, Gross was the No. 1 ranked player in his class in the World Amateur Golf Rankings. As a freshman, he was one of five Alabama golfers to be named to the starting lineup of every event in which the Tide competed last fall.
