DURHAM – Duke men's golf is set to host its annual Rod Myers Invitational on Sept. 24 and 25 at the Duke University Golf Club. The 13th iteration of the event starts on Sunday morning, with the first and second round, and concludes on Monday with the third and final round.

"The Duke program is once again extremely honored to host its home event in remembrance of Rod Myers," said head coach Jamie Green. "We're looking forward to welcoming a highly-competitive field to the Duke University Golf Club and the team is excited to start play tomorrow morning."

The 12-team field is made up of Duke, Coastal Carolina, Charlotte, East Carolina, Louisville, Loyola (Md.), NC State, Penn State, Princeton, UNCG, UNCW and Virginia Tech.

Duke's starting lineup is led by Jimmy Zheng, who is joined by Luke Sample, Ian Siebers, Bryan Kim and Kelly Chinn. The Blue Devils also have four individuals in the field – John Peters, Ethan Evans, Daniel Choi and Daniel Uranga.

The three-round tournament begins on Sunday morning, with teams teeing off of No. 1, starting at 7:33 a.m., and No. 10, starting at 7:30 a.m. The second round starts with continuous play following the conclusion of the first round. Third-round tee times begin on No. 1 at 8:10 a.m., and on No. 10 at 8:05 a.m.

The Blue Devils are paired with Louisville and NC State on Sunday, starting at 8:18 a.m., off of No. 1. Third-round pairings are set according to first-day results.

The Duke University Golf Club was designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr., and is a 7,154-yard, par-72 layout. The event is open to the public, with free parking and admission.

This is the 13th year of the Rod Myers Invitational, which honors the Blue Devils' late head coach, who guided the program for 34 years from 1973 until his passing in 2007 after a battle with an acute form of leukemia. While at the helm of the Duke men's golf program, Myers coached 16 All-Americans, nine Academic All-Americans, 24 All-ACC selections and three ACC individual champions. In 2007, the university named the golf training center after him and an endowed athletic scholarship was created in his honor.

Myers' resume included 30 tournament wins for Duke, the 2005 ACC Championship title and seven NCAA Championships appearances.
