NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championships

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The NCAA Division II Men's Golf Championships, which is played in late May, is an annual competition in U.S. men's collegiate golf. It is a strokeplay team competition, but there is also an award for the lowest scoring individual competitor. Many of the individual champions have gone on to successful professional careers. The most successful individual winner is Lee Janzen (1986) who won eight times on the PGA Tour including two major championships, the 1993 and 1998 U.S. Opens.
