ST. ANDREW'S, SCOTLAND – UNC Greensboro's Will Bowman carded a final round 74 to tie for third at the Boyd Quaich Memorial Students' International Golf Tournament at St. Andrew's.
Bowman, who will be a senior next season, entered Friday's final round tied for the lead. However, local product Gordon Stevens overcame a third-round 79 to card a final round 69 and take the title by four shots over Matthew Williams and five shots better than Greensboro-native Bowman and North Carolina's Joe Campbell.
The field in excess of 70 golfers from the British Isles, Canada and the United States each completed a round on the Old and New Courses, with the top 30 playing a further 18 holes on each course.
The winner's 72-hole aggregate score of 284 was just one shot higher than the tournament record of 283 strokes.
