April 22, 2018 | Cowboy Golf
TULSA, Okla. – Oklahoma State's men's golf team will look to capture its 10th Big 12 title this week when it begins play at the Big 12 Championship at Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa. Overall, the Cowboys have won 54 league titles and have produced 47 individual champions since the program's first season in 1947.
The top-ranked Cowboys will be the tournament's No. 1 seed and will be grouped with second-seeded Oklahoma. The in-state rivals will get their first round underway at 8 a.m. (CST) on Monday.
The tournament will consist of 72 holes with 36 being played on Monday followed by 18-hole days on Tuesday and Wednesday. Pairings for the second day of play will be based on the 36-hole totals from Monday's action. The final day's pairings will be based on the 54-hole team totals with the leaders teeing off last.
OSU's lineup will be comprised of seniors Sam Stevens and Kristoffer Ventura, junior Zach Bauchou, sophomore Viktor Hovland and freshman Matthew Wolff. Four of OSU's starters will enter the event among the top 50 in the Golfweek/Sagarin Rankings. Hovland (No. 5) and Wolff (No. 6) are joined by Bauchou (No. 13) in the top 15, while Ventura currently stands at No. 50. Stevens is coming off a top-10 showing in his last outing, finishing tied for sixth at the ASU Thunderbird Invitational, and is ranked 92nd.
The Big 12 Championship has been held three times previously at the historic venue, with the Perry Maxwell design playing host to the event in 2003, 2011 and 2015.
The Cowboys have won nine Big 12 crowns in the history of the event. OSU won three of the first four tournaments, finishing atop the leaderboard in 1997, 1998 and 2000. The Cowboys' next league title came in 2005 before reeling off five-straight victories from 2007-2011.
OSU has produced the event's individual medalist on nine occasions with Leif Westerberg (1997), Charles Howell (2000), Anders Hultman (2002), Hunter Mahan (2003), Pablo Martin (2007), Rickie Fowler (2008), Morgan Hoffmann (2009, 2011) and Stratton Nolen (2016) all taking top honors.
