"The Arnold Palmer Cup is slated for July 3-5 at Lahinch Golf Club and in these unprecedented times we do not know if the matches will be held as scheduled, postponed, or canceled. With the pandemic affecting so many lives around the globe, there are certainly more pressing issues than golf," notes the Golf Coaches Associate of America. "However, we would like to recognize the accomplishments of these college golfers since last summer and during this college season."
Puig tied for 10th at the 2020 Cabo Collegiate that included rounds of 69 and 68 to close at 3-under 210 which helped ASU capture its third tournament of the season.
