Congratulations to Wake Forest for winning the playoff against Georgia Tech this morning. Wake Forest went up early with a birdie on par-3 hole 16 and ended with another birdie on par-5 hole 18.
Because Wake Forest won, there are no individual playoffs needed this morning – the 9 players moving forward are set. Two of those players are from Georgia Tech – last year’s individual champion Hiroshi Tai and Carson Kim.
Below are the final teams and individuals playing in today’s last round of stroke play. By the end, our individual NCAA Champion will be crowned and the 8 teams advancing to match play tomorrow in the Quarterfinals will be known. Tee times begin off holes 1 and 10 at 10:30am PT, with the last tee time at 1:04pm PT.
Current clubhouse leader Michael La Sasso from Ole Miss tees off hole 10 at 12:20pm PT and Texas A&M’s Phichaksn Maichon – just two strokes behind – tees off hole 10 at 11:25am PT.
