Every golfer of the Sun Devil Men’s Golf team has been playing in amateur tournaments since the season ended in May, including Preston Summerhays and Sun Devil signee Wenyi Ding, whose last appearances were at the U.S. Open at Los Angeles Country Club last month. But, Josele Ballester is the latest Sun Devil to capture a victory during the off season.
The two-time honorable mention All-American put together a strong 10-under 62 opening round of the European Amateur Championship in Estonia and maintained his presence through the end. Ballester’s victory at the European Amateur earned him an invitation to the 151st Open Championship at Royal Liverpool July 20-23.
