LA QUINTA, CA — The No. 23 Texas Tech men’s golf team delivered an impressive final round at The Prestige, surging up the leaderboard to secure a runner-up finish on Wednesday at PGA WEST’s Greg Norman Course.
Starting the final round in eighth place, the Red Raiders vaulted six spots, posting a 12-under-par (272) as a team—the second-lowest round of the tournament, trailing only event champion San Diego.
Charlie DeLong led Texas Tech’s individual efforts, finishing T-4 after shooting 2-under-par (69) in the final round, totaling 7-under-par (206)—his best finish of the 2024-25 season and third career top-10 at Texas Tech.
Freshman Connor Graham carded the Red Raiders’ lowest final-round score, firing a 4-under-par 67 to finish T-11 at 4-under-par (209). His round included six birdies and a bogey-free front nine, extending his streak to six consecutive rounds at par or better.
Senior Calum Scott continued his strong play, posting a 3-under-par 68 to finish T-27 at 2-under-par (211). His final round featured six birdies and a hole-out eagle on the par-4 11th hole.
Sophomore Price Hill made the biggest leap on the leaderboard, climbing 27 spots after carding a 3-under-par 68—a strong recovery from his 9-over-par 80 on Tuesday.
Sophomore Tim Wiedemeyer shot a 2-under-par 69, helping Texas Tech become one of only two teams with all five players shooting under-par in the final round.
Texas Tech’s runner-up finish continues its dominance at The Prestige, marking its third consecutive top-two finish at the annual event. The Red Raiders won in 2024 and finished second in 2023 and 2025.
In the individual tournament at Terra Lago, sophomore Ben Gregg and freshman Sean Keeling both tied for fourth place in a 39-player field, finishing at 1-over-par (214)—just one stroke shy of the podium.
Texas Tech will return to action March 2-4 at the Cabo Collegiate at Twin Dolphin Club in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
