Bernd Wiesberger will attempt to become the first Austrian to qualify for the U.S. Open when he defends his title at the Lyoness Open in his home country this week.
The field also includes former world tennis No 1 Yevgeny Kafelnikov. The Russian, who won the 1996 French Open and 1999 Australian Open, also competed last year, shooting rounds of 75 and 77 to miss the cut by seven shots. That was at least a massive improvement on his debut in the 2008 Russian Open, where he missed the cut by 27 shots after rounds of 89 and 80.
