RALEIGH, N.C. (April 8, 2022) – ETSU Men’s Golf opened the final regular-season tournament on a one-hour weather delay in Raleigh, N.C.

Archie Davies (Carlisle, England) currently sits T-3^rd on the leaderboard at 3-under-par for the event. Davies concluded his opening round with a 70 (-2) to sit in a tie for third and has maintained that position with six holes remaining in his second round. The Welsh golfer started his first round off with a birdie on the par-5 1^st hole. Davies carded three birdies and three bogeys in his opening round but climbed to 2-under-par thanks to an eagle on the par-4 13^th. The veteran golfer is currently 1-under-par in his second round with one birdie and 11 pars before play was suspended.

Remi Chartier (Montreal, Canada) is even-par through 30 holes of play and sits in a five-way tie for 12^th. Chartier’s opening round featured three birdies and three bogeys to finish with a 72 (E). The Canada product carded all three birdies on the front nine. Chartier then opened his second round with a birdie on the par-4 10^th hole, but surrendered the shot three holes later to drop back to even-par.
