Pettit Named First-Team All-American
Clemson, S.C. – Turk Pettit has been named a first-team All-American by the Collegiate Golf Coaches Association. The CGCA has only announced its first team. The second, third and honorable mention teams will be announced at a later date this month.
This is the second time Pettit has been named an All-American as he was an honorable mention selection as a freshman in 2018. He is the first Clemson golfer to earn first-team All-America honors since Bryson Nimmer for the 2018-19 season.
Pettit became the second Clemson golfer in history to win the National Championship when he shot a seven-under-par score of 273 over the 72 holes on the par 70 course. The native of Auburn, Ala. joined former Tiger Charles Warren in winning college golf’s greatest tournament, as Warren won the 1997 tournament at Conway Farms outside Chicago, Ill.
