Greyserman Winner at The Western – Stanford Cardinal

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Highlighted by an 8-under, 62 card, Dean Greyserman earned his first collegiate win of his Stanford career, sharing co-champion honors as the Cardinal wrapped up the final round of competition at the 79th Western Intercollegiate on Wednesday. Stanford ended the tournament shooting the lowest of any team in the field on the third day at 12-under par, finishing the tournament tied for fifth overall. 

Greyserman becomes Stanford’s 10th individual champion at the Western Intercollegiate and first since Isaiah Salinda won the tournament in 2019. He also becomes the first co-champion under the tournament’s new format, sharing the honor with Southern California’s Jack Buchanan. 

Less than two feet stood between Greyserman’s tee shot and the pin at hole 18. The Stanford senior, who had tied the course record with a 61 earlier this month, had squared his penultimate shot of the tournament just ahead of competitor Taishi Moto of Arizona as both players sought to catch leader Jack Buchanan – who entered the day at 11-under – with one hole left. Greyserman, who had battled through the greens for the previous two days, tucked away his seventh birdie of the day ending the afternoon by tying the course record with his 8-under, 62 round as the waiting game began to crown the tournament’s individual champion. 

Somebody’s closer 🎯🤯

It was a full 18-hole effort for Greyserman as the senior entered the afternoon at 2-under and nine shots back of Buchanon who went off in the last wave of the final foursome. Dean, who had snuck a 1-under card on the first day, grabbed a massive advantage through the front-nine with three birdies before lipping in a four-foot putt on hole nine for eagle. Greyserman then seized the momentum on the back stretch, rifling home birdies on holes 10, 12 and 14 before his tee shot put him just inches from setting a new tournament record as he tapped in his final shot for birdie and set a new career-low with the 8-under, 62. 

With Buchanan mustering through the final four holes of the evening, it was the greens that kept Greyserman in contention for the individual crown. Buchanan – who entered the final four holes at even-par after setting the course record at 8-under during Tuesday’s second round – shorted his putt…
