OMAHA, Neb. -- Rising Creighton University sophomore golfer Nate Vontz will play in this week's Pinnacle Bank Championship on the Web.com Tour after qualifying for the event on Sunday at The Club at Indian Creek in northwest Omaha.
A Lincoln native, Vontz opened the 36-hole Indian Creek Invitational qualifier by setting a course record on the Red Feather to Black Bird rotation with a loop of 66 on Saturday. He then shot a 73 on Sunday to finish at 5-under par. Vontz was tied after 36 holes with Noah Hofman. Vontz would clinch his spot by sinking a birdie putt on the second playoff hole to defeat Hofman.
