Kansas sophomore Tyler Docking shot a 64, placing him in a three-way tie for first with Leon and Augusta State’s Emmett Turner, at the end of the first round. The round score of 64 that Docking carded, ties for the second-lowest round in Kansas golf history.
As for the other Jayhawks, senior Kevin Ward finished the round with score of 68, senior Andrew Price finished one stroke behind Ward with a score of 69, senior Pete Krsnich fired a 71 and sophomore Gary Woodland rounded out the Jayhawks with a total score of 73.
Coach Ross Randall said his team played well on Wednesday. There would be no way to judge the team’s progress without an actual tournament, he said.
The Jayhawks are ahead of some of the premier golfing programs in the country, including Arizona State, UCLA and Stanford.
