Long was runner-up in the 2018 English Amateur, losing, 6 and 5, to Thomas Thurloway in the final.[1] In the 2020 English Amateur, he led after the stroke-play stage to be ranked as the top seed going into the match-play;[2] he was ultimately knocked out in the quarter-finals at the 23rd hole.[3]
Long won the 2020 Amateur Championship at Royal Birkdale, beating Joe Harvey, 4 and 3, in the final. The win gave him an entry into the 2021 Masters Tournament, U.S. Open and The Open Championship.[4][3][5]
Long was selected for the 2021 Walker Cup, but only played in the final-day singles session due to "gastrointestinal issues" that impacted both teams. He won his match against John Pak on the 18th hole.[6]
