PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Florida – The top-10 in the PGA TOUR University Ranking is unchanged this week, with Texas Tech’s Ludvig Åberg leading North Carolina’s Austin Greaser. This tandem has been 1-2 since early October, while Pepperdine’s William Mouw maintained his season-best position of No. 3 for the second consecutive week.
Georgia Tech’s Ross Steelman (Ranked 8th) and Arkansas’ Mateo Fernandez de Oliveira (Ranked 14th) maintained their top-20 rankings after finishing T10 at the Linger Longer Invitational. Fernandez de Oliveira will play in next week’s Masters as the winner of the Latin America Amateur Championship, and he’ll be joined by Texas A&M’s Sam Bennett (Ranked 4th), Georgia Southern’s Ben Carr (Ranked 21st) and Vanderbilt sophomore Gordon Sargent (No. 1 in WAGR).
