LA QUINTA, Calif. (Feb. 19, 2018) – The ETSU men’s golf team will have to wait another day to begin its spring campaign.

Monday’s opening round of The Prestige at PGA West was cancelled due to high winds in the southern California region. Wind gusts of over 40 miles per hour hit the region.

Teams will play 36 holes on Tuesday with the final round being contested on Wednesday.

Joining the Cowboys are No. 9 LSU, No. 10 Stanford, No. 19 Southern Cal, No. 38 San Diego State, No. 41 Oregon, No. 44 Northwestern and No. 49 Pepperdine.   

Individually, nine golfers are ranked in the top-50 of either the Golfstat or Golfweek Rankings, including top-ranked Justin Suh of Southern Cal. In addition, four golfers are ranked in the top-10 and five in the top-25.
