New Mexico senior Sam Choi was named the Mountain West Men’s Golfer of the Week, the conference announced Thursday. Choi was honored after a second-place finish at the Arizona Intercollegiate as he led the Lobos to a runner-up finish at the event.
It is the fourth Golfer of the Week of Choi’s career and the first for a Lobo this season. Choi earned the honor twice as a sophomore in 2019-20 and once last season as a junior.
Choi, of Anaheim, California, shot 69-68-66 over the three rounds this week at the Tucson Country Club to finish second at the Arizona Intercollegiate, one shot off the lead.
