Western Kentucky senior Linus Lo posted a career-best 36- and 54-hole total on his way to his first career victory at UAB’s Graeme McDowell Invitational on Tuesday. The performance earned Lo the title of Conference USA Men’s Golfer of the Week, the conference announced Wednesday.
After shooting a pair of 3-under 69s in the first day of competition, Lo was tied for first, just one shot in front of second. He carded 11 birdies in two rounds, including four in his last eight holes in the first round.
With the title on the line, the senior recorded three birdies and 15 pars in the final round, playing bogey-free golf.
