Four solid rounds put the junior from British Columbia, Canada, in the top 20 in Scottsdale, Arizona.
University of Utah golfer Tristan Mandur put together four solid rounds and finished in a five-way tie for 17th place at the NCAA Golf Championships in Arizona this weekend.
Mandur, a junior who was playing as an individual because the Utes did not qualify for nationals as a team, fired a 2-over-par 72 on Monday as the medalist portion of the tournament wrapped up at Grayhawk Golf Club.
The native of Mill Bay, British Columbia, Canada, shot rounds of 68, 73 and 70 before Monday’s strong finish. At one point in Friday’s opening round, he was tied for second.
On Monday, Mandur played the course at even-par with the exception of a double bogey on the No. 10 hole.
Mandur was the third Ute golfer to qualify as an individual for the NCAAs since 1990, and the second in the past three seasons. He finished tied for fourth in the NCAA Regionals two weeks ago in Cle Elum, Washington.
Previously, Dustin Pimm qualified in 2006 and Kyler Dunkle qualified in 2019 and tied for 28th overall.
In the team competition, Arizona State got the No. 1 seed for match play, while Oklahoma State got the second seed and Pepperdine got the third seed. The top eight teams advanced. A score of 25-over or better was needed to advance.
Arizona State is coached by former BYU standout Matt Thurmond.
