Lahiri’s tied 46th finish at the Byron Nelson event, kept him in 56th position, which ensured that he stayed on in top-60 of the world golf rankings. The US Open, which is the only Major where he has not made the cut so far, will be his eighth successive Major and he is also confirmed for the British Open Championships and the PGA Championships later this year.

After his maiden appearance at a Major in Open Championships in 2012, Lahiri has played seven Majors in a row dating back to the Open in 2014.
