Top-tier contenders have raised gobs of money. But that's not the case for many in the sprawling field that's drawn more than 20 candidates, making it difficult for them to qualify for the next round of debates.

New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand took in about $500,000 less than the $2.9 million she raised in the first quarter. Washington Gov. Jay Inlsee improved his numbers but still only raised about $3 million. And former Congressman John Delaney raised $284,000 but loaned his campaign $7.7 million.

Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper resisted calls from former campaign staffers to quit the race. He raised $1.1 million this quarter. Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet took in $2.8 million.

All campaign must report their fundraising figures to the Federal Election Commission by the end of Monday.

Some big fundraising hauls by Democrats are easing worries that lackluster totals last quarter were a sign the party would struggle to stockpile cash for the general election fight with President Donald Trump.

Second quarter totals must be reported by the end of Monday. But early glimpses some campaigns offered show they collectively raised about $96 million, putting them within striking distance of the $105 million raised by Trump and the Republican National Committee.

Pete Buttigieg led the field of Democratic White House hopefuls with $24.8 million, followed by former Vice President Joe Biden, who raised $21.5 million. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren came in third with $19.1 million.

Others haven't announced their numbers but are certain to have pulled in far less, raising questions about their viability.

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (AP) — Charlie Woods failed to advance in a U.S. Open local qualifying event Thursday, shooting a 9-over 81 at Legacy Golf & Tennis Club.

The 15-year-old son of Tiger Woods tied for 61st among the 74 players who finished. The top five advanced to regional qualifying.

Woods shot 40 on the front nine, opening bogey-double bogey. He followed a birdie on the par-3 fifth with another double bogey. He shot 41 on the back with three bogeys and a double bogey.

The U.S. Open will be played June 13-16 at Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina.

Woods also struggled in February in a pre-qualifier for the PGA Tour's Cognizant Classic, taking a 12 on a hole and shooting a 16-over 86 at Lost Lake Golf Club in Hobe Sound.

Woods has played the 36-hole PNC Championship with his father the last four years in a scramble format.
