DECATUR, Ala. – University of South Alabama rising junior Brooks Rabren posted back-to-back scores in the 60s over the weekend, and with a final 7-under-par 277 total won the 50th annual Sprit of America Classic title on Sunday at the Burningtree Country Club.
Rabren — a native of Andalusia, Ala., who posted a 74.12 stroke average last season — fired a 3-under-par 68 Saturday after making the tournament cut, then followed up with a 4-under-par 67 to earn the victory by a three-shot margin over Troy signee Mac Murphy. He was one of only five individuals out of the 45 who advanced to the weekend to break par for the event.
