Ponder Tied for Clubhouse Lead, Alabama in Second after Opening Round of SEC Men’s Golf Championships

Thomas Ponder recorded a hole-in-one to go along with five birdies on the day, while Canon Claycomb tied for fifth overall to lead the Crimson Tide individuals in round one

Alabama golfer Thomas Ponder carded a career-best 18-hole score of 6-under par 64, which included his first career hole-in-one, to lead the men's golf team day one of the 2023 Southeastern Conference Men's Golf Championships. As a team, the Crimson Tide had a team score of 10-under par 270 and is second place overall entering Thursday's second round of play.

Ponder's day was highlighted by five birdies in addition to his first career ace which came on the 176-yard par 3 17th hole. He also added just one bogey to result in his 6-under par total in round one. Ponder is tied with Caleb Surratt of Tennessee for the overall lead, one stroke better than Texas A&M's Sam Bennett (-5).

Canon Claycomb also had a solid start to the championship following his round of 3-under par 67 Wednesday. It marked his team-leading 21st round of par or better this season and his 11th time shooting in the 60s.

The tournament's second round on the par 70, 7,005-yard Sea Island Golf Club Seaside Course will tee off Thursday morning. All 14 schools from the SEC will compete in a 54-hole, stroke-play format with the top eight teams advancing to Saturday's match-play quarterfinals.

Not really Alabama golf teams - but close enough to not start.a new thread. It sounds like Top Golf but only for putting. Reportedly going in the area by Baumhower’s and Hampton Inn.

Sigh…

Alabama’s Season Comes to an End at the NCAA Women’s Golf Palm Beach Regional

Benedetta Moresco and Sarah Edwards each finished inside the top 20 to lead the Crimson Tide

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – The Alabama women's golf team concluded play at the NCAA Palm Beach Gardens Regional Wednesday, finishing in ninth overall with a team score of 898 (299-303-296). As a result of finishing outside the top five and not advancing to the 2023 NCAA Women's Golf National Championships, the Crimson Tide's 2022-23 season comes to an end.

Benedetta Moresco and Sarah Edwards led the team throughout the three-day, 54-hole regional as both finished inside the top 20. Moresco paced Alabama with a tournament total of 4-over par 220 (73-74-73) to finish in 18th position, while Edwards was a stroke back and tied for 19th overall at 5-over par 221 (74-75-72).

From Head Coach Mic Potter
"This is an incredibly disappointing result. We had gotten ourselves in a good position after a solid opening round and I had hoped that we could continue to move forward in a positive direction. But we had a bad day (Tuesday) that really put us in a position where we had to basically shoot a tournament record just to make it through. This week continued what has been a disturbing pattern across our last three or four tournaments in that we have a pretty good start but can't finish and that just isn't good enough.

"I am looking forward to next year. We lose Emilie and Benedetta and bring in two signees in Kaitlyn Schroeder, who enrolled in January and has been practicing with us, and Harriet Lockley. The fact is there has to be a lot of improvement by everyone returning in order to be a contender in the SEC and for a national championship. We must come up with a plan over the next few days to get everyone on board so that we get better and understand the standard we all expect."
