The Shorthorn staff
UTA golf team member Zack
Fischer started on his golf grip
young.
While still a newborn in the
hospital, his father used a pencil as a miniature club to show
Fischer proper form.
Fischer, an interdisciplinary
studies junior, won the 2009
Western Junior Championship at the University of Texas
Golf Club in Austin on June 19.
Fischer is preparing to play at
the U.
S.
Amateur Public Links
Championship, or Publinx, July
13 through July 18 in Norman,
Okla.
The Western Junior Championship requires players be no
older than 19 by the cutoff date.
Fischer said he barely made it.
According to the tournament’s Web site, past champions include Bobby Clampett
(1978), Jim Furyk (1987) and
Phil Mickelson (1988).
Tiger
Woods also played in the tournament in 1992.
