FORMBY, England – Former Auburn All-SEC golfer Michael Johnson begins play in the Arnold Palmer Cup as a member of the United States team June 24-26 at the Formby Golf Club in Formby, England.

The annual Ryder Cup-style competition showcases the top 10 American college golfers and their counterparts from Europe.

Johnson, who was a first-team All-SEC and PING All-Southeast Region selection as a senior this year, joins fellow SEC golfers Zach Wright of LSU and Vanderbilt’s Will Gordon as members of Team USA.
