DURHAM, N.C. – The Duke men's golf team is back in action Oct. 6-7 at the first Nike Golf Collegiate Invitational at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas. The two-day, 54-hole tournament features eight teams ranked in the top 25 nationally, including four top 10 squads.
The Blue Devils will be represented in the event by the five-man lineup of Adam Wood, Jake Shuman, Max Greyserman, Michael Ricaurte and Turner Southey-Gordon.
"We're really excited about heading down to the Dallas-Fort Worth area and playing on what is one of the best PGA Tour -- and just golf in general -- venues in our country at Colonial Country Club,” said head coach Jamie Green. “The tournament has been a few years in the making in terms of planning, and the folks at Nike Golf have committed a lot to be able to make this happen. We're very fortunate to be at a school that is the beneficiary of the generous sponsorship of Nike, and we're looking forward to competing with some of the best programs that also are Nike Elite schools."
Wood, a freshman from Indiana, leads the team with a 72.5 stroke average. He has shot even-par or better in three of his six rounds and has a tie for eighth finish at the Invitational at the Ocean Course.
Shuman owns a 74.3 stroke average with two under-par rounds. The Needham, Mass., native has been outstanding early in tournament play with a 71.3 stroke average in first and second round play.
Greyserman has a 75.1 stroke average through six rounds of play in his sophomore campaign. He is coming off a season-best 72 in the final round of the DICK'S Sports Goods Collegiate Cup Challenge at the Golf Club of Tennessee.
The senior tandem of Ricaurte and Southey-Gordon enter the Nike Collegiate Golf Invitational with 75.7 and 76.5 stroke averages, respectively. Ricaurte is making his second appearance in the lineup, while Southey-Gordon makes his third straight trip for the Blue Devils.
Duke is joined in the field by host TCU along with No. 4 Texas, No. 5 Georgia, No. 7 Stanford, No. 8 Washington, No. 11 Oklahoma, No. 16 Vanderbilt, No. 24 USC, No. 25 Oregon along with Arizona and Ohio State.
“With Colonial's rich history and tradition, playing host to one of the longest running events on the PGA Tour coupled with Nike Golf's state of the art research and development facility, The Oven, makes Colonial CC the ideal place to host this inaugural tournament,” said Cricket Musch, Sports Marketing Director of College, Amateur and Junior Golf at Nike Golf. “Our partnership with Colonial CC and the City of Fort Worth will offer an unforgettable experience for these top college golf programs.”
The 2015 Nike Golf Collegiate Invitational will be hosted by Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club outside of Portland, Oregon and will return to Colonial Country Club in 2016.
