Virginia Golf: UVA Alum Steve Marino in contention for first PGA Tour victory

Malcolm Brogdon and his teammates won't be the only Cavaliers looking to make history Sunday. Golf alumnus Steve Marino, a 2002 UVA graduate, will look for his first-ever PGA Tour win at the Puerto Rico Open. Marino (-10) sits one shot out of first place after three rounds. Englishman Ian Poulter, once ranked as high as fifth in the world, leads the field.

Marino is back on the PGA Tour for 2016 after playing on the Web.com tour in 2015. The Northern Virginia native reached 54th in the world in 2011 before a series of injuries sidetracked his career.
