Billy Tom Sargent

After a challenging start at the NCAA Kissimmee (Fla.) Regional, Western Kentucky golfer Billy Tom Sargent settled in nicely Monday over the final 13 holes of his opening round.

The redshirt junior played at 1 over par across his last 13 holes after starting 5 over through the first five. He finished the day tied for 68th with a 6-over 78 in the first round at the par-72, 7,154-yard Reunion Resort Watson Course.

Sargent, a Georgetown native, got a later start than expected to his round with an hour-plus rain delay in the morning, then found himself 5 over through five holes following a triple bogey on No.
