Easton earns surprise individual bid to NCAA Regional

Western Kentucky senior golfer Stuart Easton was literally the first player out of the field when NCAA Regional at-large selections were announced Wednesday night.

The Scotland native will compete May 13-15 in the Myrtle Beach (S.C.) Regional at TPC Myrtle Beach. The low five teams and the low individual not on those teams advance to the 2019 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championships on May 24-29 at Blessings Golf Club in Fayetteville, Ark.

“It’s been a huge rollercoaster of emotions over the past 14 hours or so, but I’m very glad to be given the opportunity to represent WKU in regionals,” Easton said in a news release.
