For the Carolina men’s golf team, this weekend’s tournament at UNC Finley Golf Course represents a great opportunity to build upon a good start to the 2016-17 season. The Tar Heels are two tournaments into the season with a pair of solid finishes, leading to a ninth-place national ranking by Golfweek.
The Tar Heel Intercollegiate will put the Tar Heels to the test, albeit on familiar turf. The par-72, 7,242 yard layout is one they obviously see often during practice rounds.
The tournament was scheduled to be played on October 8th and 9th, but UNC officials moved the start of the event up a day due to Hurricane Matthew.
