By Cassie Stein, Golfweek
Alabama senior Cory Whitsett and 2013 NCAA
Division III Player of the
Year Brad Shigezawa of Claremont Mudd
Scripps are among the 21
individuals who will compete in the Western
Refining Sun Bowl All-
America Golf Classic on Nov. 25-26 at El Paso
(Texas) Country Club.
The 21-player field consists of last season’s
Division I All-Americans
(with a limit of two per team), as well as
Shigezawa. Whitsett is
making his third consecutive start at the
event.
Since his last start in El Paso – where he
finished third – Whitsett had
quite the year. He helped Alabama capture its
first NCAA National
Championship and helped the Americans
capture both the Walker Cup
and the Palmer Cup. As an individual he has
won twice and had nine
top-10 finishes. He was also the 2013 SEC
Player of the Year and
shared the SEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year
award.
“It’s been incredible,” Whitsett said. “Full of
emotions, really. It’s been
a really special year, closing it with a National
Championship, because
we came so close the year before.”
Whitsett, who loves the course because he'll
have a wedge into most
of the greens, is looking for his second win in
three years after
winning the event in 2011.
