The University of Florida men’s golf team shot six-under par 282 in the final round of the Puerto Rico Classic but couldn’t move up the leader board and finished in seventh place with a tournament total of 859 (-5). Senior Billy Horschel (Grant, Fla.) continued to play well and finished in a tie for sixth.

Horschel shot a final-round 69 (-3) to finish at eight-under par 208 for the tournament. The three-time All-American shot under par in each of his three rounds.

Freshman Mu Hu (Shen Zhen, China) bounced back after two rough rounds with a three-under 69 on the final day. Senior Toby Ragland (Jacksonville, Fla.) shot a 71 (-1) and junior Tim McKenney (Scottsdale, Ariz.) shot a 73 (+1) to round out the team’s scoring in the third round.

“We played better today in what I thought were the toughest conditions,” said head coach Buddy Alexander. “I was really proud of Mu today. It was impressive to see a freshman come back and have a round like that on the final day.”

McKenney finished the tournament at one-over par 217 in a tie for 27th place. Hu jumped up the leader board and finished in a tie for 35th at three-over 219.

Junior Tyson Alexander (Gainesville, Fla.) shot a final-round 74 (+2) and joined Ragland in a tie for 46th at five-over par 221.

Georgia ran away from the field, finishing at 38-under par 826 for the tournament and winning by 12 strokes. The Bulldog’s Hudson Swafford and Texas’ Dylan Fritelli shared the medalist honors at 12-under par 204.

Next up for the Gators is a trip to Las Vegas, where they will play in the Southern Highlands Collegiate Championship March 13-15.
