Hogan Watch list unveiled
The names of the 25 players making the "watch list" for the 2010 Ben Hogan Award were released today and I don't think anyone should be surprised at who is on the list. The award, sponsored by Chesapeake Energy, in association with Colonial CC in Fort Worth, The Friends of Golf (FOG) and the Golf Coaches Association of America, is presented annually to the top men's NCAA Division I, II or III, NAIA or NJCAA college golfer taking into account all collegiate and amateur competitions during a 12-month period.
Top-ranked Oklahoma State had four players included--Peter Uihlein,Morgan Hoffmann,Trent Whitekiller and Kevin Tway--while No. 2 Stanford had the next most in three--David Chung,Sihwan Kim and Steve Ziegler. Alabama was the only other school with multiple players on the list:Bud Cauley and Hunter Hamrick.
