Tigers qualify for final round of stroke play
For the third day in a row Turk Pettit carried the Clemson golf team.
The graduate from Auburn, Ala., shot his third consecutive round in the 60s to lead the Tigers to a five-over par team score of 285 and a 10th place standing entering the final round of stroke play at the NCAA National Tournament at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Ariz.
The Tigers are 10th with a score of 16 over par 856. Larry Penley’s team easily made the 15-team cut for the final round, but now must finish in the top eight to advance to the Match Play tournament that will determine the National Champion.
The Tigers are just three shots off the eight-team cutline.
