Kai Lambro captured the 2026 Seattle Amateur Championship with an outstanding three-round total of 200, finishing 11-under par at West Seattle. Kai opened the championship with a round low 64, followed by a second-round 66 to take firm control of the tournament. He closed with a steady final-round 70 to secure a commanding six-shot victory.
Christopher Zamani sealed his solo 2nd place by making a treacherous downhill putt on 18 to close at 206 after rounds of 65-70-71. Dalton Dean, Henry Mills, and Ben Van Hollebeke shared third place at 207, each finishing 4-under par.
