At the US Open Sectional Qualifying in Daly City, CA, Rory shot 70-72–142, missing the cut by two strokes. Through the 35th hole, Rory was still 4-under (in position of making the cut), but a missing ball led to a double bogey on the final, 36th, hole.

Cerritos’ Hie to Try for History at State Golf Championships
Peter Yoon; Eric Sondheimer, From Times Staff Reports
June 6, 2006Rory Hie of Cerritos will attempt to make history Tuesday when he plays in the state golf championships at Santa Maria Country Club.
Hie, a senior who signed with USC, won the Southern Section individual championship and the CIF-Southern California Golf Assn. regional championship. Should he win the state title, he would be the first to achieve that trifecta.
Only one player has won the Southern Section and regional championships in the same year: Tiger Woods in 1991. However, no state championships were contested that year. State championships for boys’ golf were held from 1976 to 1981 and reinstated in 2004.
