Gary Putnik | NCAA.com | May 27, 2022 Vanderbilt leads after first round of DI men's golf championship Vanderbilt Athletics Share Vanderbilt (+2) leads the DI men's golf championship after the first round on Friday. The Commodores are followed by Oregon and Auburn at 5-over. Most teams at Grayhawk Golf Club struggled to keep the big numbers out of play in the first round. Vanderbilt was able to prevent that with just one player recording a hole at double bogey. Gordon Sargent got out to a clean start with no bogies through his first 15 holes. He went on to bogey two of his last three to finish at even-par (70) on the day. On the individual side, there's a two-way tie for the lead. Auburn's Brendan Valdes and Kansas' Harry Hillier both site at 2-under (68) through the first 18. Hillier played an eventful round. Through his first nine he had six birdies, two bogies and one par. The Jayhawk began to slip a little on the back half with three bogies and one birdie. Valdes was a little less hectic with four birdies and two bogies. ✅ 1st round 68 ✅ Tied for 1st after the opening day ✅ 7 🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦🐦 ✅ Front Nine 31 @HHillier99 was locked in on Day 1!#RockChalk x #NCAAGolf pic.twitter.com/OECNA7b8Wl — Kansas Men's Golf (@KUMensGolf) May 28, 2022 There's still a lot time for players and teams to make moves.
