Cards To Play in the Fighting Irish Classic
September 30, 2023 | Men's Golf
LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of men's golf team begins the month of October with the Fighting Irish Classic at the Warren Golf Course in South Bend. The 14-team event will be played from Oct. 1-2. The teams will play 36 holes on Sunday and 18 during the round round of action.
The Cardinals will once again compete in a difficult field as six teams were included in the first edition of the top-60 of the GolfWeek team standings released on Sept. 29, headlined by No. 5 Tennessee. Purdue (No. 26), Louisville (49), Northwestern (53), and Notre Dame (57) round out the top-60. Indiana ranks 55th in the poll.

He shot an 11-under-par to win the Rod Myers, shooting a second-round score of 64, the lowest round of the tournament and second-lowest score in tournament history.
At the Rod Myers, Max Kennedy tied for eighth overall by shooting a 2-under-par 214, despite closing with a final round score of 74.
