A strong field teed it up at the Calusa Cup and it was Georgia Tech who came out on top.
The Yellow Jackets claimed team of the week honors after an impressive win at the Calusa Cup, where they finished as the lone team under par at 8 under. Georgia Tech featured all five players inside the top 30 on the individual leaderboard, with four in the top-13. Bartley Forrester shared individual medalist honors with Florida’s Fred Biondi at 5 under.
The win is Georgia Tech’s fourth of the season and first since February’s Watersound Invitational.
“It was a long day today. We played 29 holes. But we managed to get it done in the end.,” said Forrester. “When I shot 66 (Sunday), there was no wind. But today you had to play defensively with the wind, and the pins were tucked. We knew it could get like that before we went into it, so we were ready and embraced the challenge. It’s really cool to win (an individual title) again. Puerto Rico is more than two years ago now. But I’m glad to get another, it’s really gratifying.”
