Men's golf tries scientific approach

Sports science at UofM takes a swing at boosting men's golf program

Senior NIck Giles said he and the team benefited from the work of Dr. Daniel Greenwood.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – He didn't sink a lengthy putt to win the 2019 American Athletic Conference men's golf championship or post three rounds in the 60s to help the University of Memphis to its first league title seven years.
