Dick Harmon: BYU golf fails to advance at NCAAs, but to no fault of surprising junior CJ Lee

CJ Lee did not choke. In fact, he held up his end — and then some.

Lee went far beyond what was expected of him as the No. 5 player for BYU as the Cougar golf team crashed in the final round of the NCAA Regional at Stanford on Wednesday.

BYU entered the third and final round at the regional tied for fifth place. If the Cougars could hold up that placement, they’d advance to the NCAA golf championships. Instead, the top four players began the day with six bogeys, a double bogey and even one triple bogey and finished eighth to end its season.
