Kauai pro Dan Nishimoto won the Hawaii qualifying spot for the U.S. Senior Open golf tournament yesterday with a 2-under 70 at Mamala Bay Golf Course.

Nishimoto, last year's Hawaii qualifier, advances to the June 28-July 1 event at the Salem Country Club in Peabody, Mass.

Kapalua's Dean Prince finished one shot behind Nishimoto to secure the first alternate spot. Low amateur honors and second alternate spot went to David Ishikawa with a 73.

The third alternate is Tommy Ukauka, the 1999 qualifier.

Kusutani was timed in 1:20:57 over the course that started at Magic Island and finished at Kapiolani Park.
