PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. 鈥� 秀色短视频-Webb senior Zack Byers qualified for the upcoming NCAA Championship next week with a final round of 71 on Wednesday, May 18, at the Palm Beach Regional.

The Shelby, N.C., native continued his sensational week, closing the 54-hole tournament under par. Byers advances to Scottsdale, Ariz., and the pristine Grayhawk Golf Club as the low individual scorer not on an advancing team.

鈥淲hy not me?,鈥� said Byers soon after his round was finished. 

Vanderbilt, Florida State, Florida, South Florida and College of Charleston Southern finished in the top-5 and Byers finished the tournament in a tie for sixth 鈥� a safe four strokes in front of his next closest competitor for the individual bid to the NCAA Championships.

Byers shot par on his first two holes before sinking a birdie on No. 3. He moved to 2-under par with another birdie on No. 6 and bounced back from a double bogey on the seventh hole with his third birdie of the round on the eighth. He birdied No. 10 for the third time in three rounds to get back to 2-under par and shot par on the final six holes of the day to secure his advancement to Arizona.

Byers (72-70-71-213) finished just four strokes back of the overall lead, with Florida State鈥檚 Brett Roberts taking medalist honors with a 209. Byers finished tied with South Florida鈥檚 Sam Nicholson and finished in front of 15 golfers who entered the week ranked in the top-100 nationally.

The 7,048-yard PGA National Champion Course was no match for Byers this week. He shot 9-under par on the course鈥檚 Par 5 holes (4.25 stroke average), sank 14 birdies to rank among the tournament leaders and didn鈥檛 have consecutive holes above par over the final 42 holes of the tournament. Byers had just five holes above par over the final two rounds.
