Walthouse Completes Play at NCAA Kohler Regional

KOHLER, Wis. – Rhode Island junior Billy Walthouse wrapped up competition at the NCAA Kohler Regional Wednesday afternoon, turning in his best round of the tournament with a 1-under 71. He moved up five spots from yesterday's 73rd-place finish, tying for 68th overall.


It was smooth sailing from the get go for the Longmeadow, Mass. native, who started on the 10th hole and birdied both the 14th and 17th to sit at 2-under at the midway point. He parred the next four holes before bogeying the fifth, and got himself back to -2 by carding a 4 on the par-5 seventh hole. A bogey on the ninth put him at -1 (71) for the afternoon.

Among the 10 golfers competing as individuals, Walthouse's third-round 71 was second-best on the day. Only Ohio State's Tee-k Kelly was better, as he shot a 3-under 69 in his final round.

Overall for the NCAA Regional, Walthouse finished +12 (75-82-71=228) and was 10th of the 10 individuals.

In addition to Kelly - who advances as the top individual out of the Regional - Illinois (team champion), Florida, Arkansas, Florida State and Baylor will move on to the NCAA National Championship in Eugene, Oregon.
