The UCLA Women's Golf Team hosted the Pac-12 Championships just last week, but now it's the Men's turn.
The No. 3 UCLA Men's Golf Team will welcome the rest of the Pac-12 Conference to The Los Angeles Country Club on Monday, where the loaded group will battle it out to determine the conference champion. Five different teams are ranked among the top 11 in the country in the coaches' poll, including #1 California, the #5 Bruins, #6 Washington, #7 Stanford, and #11 USC.
UCLA is well equipped to win their 6th conference title. The Bruins are led by seniors Pontus Widegren and Pedro Figueiredo, who enter the competition ranked as the 7th and 10th best players in the country, respectively. Also in the lineup will be Anton Arboleda, Manav Shah, Jonathan Garrick, and Jay Hwang. Teams will count five scores and drop one.
The LA Country Club course plays to a par 70 over 7,236 yards. Scores will be posted by the Pac-12 Conference at the end of each round, but those looking to follow live scoring can do so here on Golfstat. Tee times are listed here. The final round, played on Wednesday, will be aired on Pac-12 Networks.
