The Bank of Utah Championship concluded Oct. 23-26 at the Black Desert Resort Golf Course in Ivins, a par-71, 7,421-yard desert layout in southern Utah.
While this year’s title went to Michael Brennan, who surged to a four-stroke victory, the tournament also highlighted the contributions of three former BYU Cougars men’s golf standouts — Zac Blair, Patrick Fishburn and Carson Lundell.
Blair posted a strong showing for the Cougars, finishing tied for 20th at 12-under par with rounds of 68-69-67-68, including five birdies in his final round.
Fishburn, who hails from Ogden and a BYU alum, made the cut in his home-state event and finished even par, showing the depth of BYU’s golf alumni. Lundell, making his PGA Tour debut, also represented the Cougar contingent and gained valuable experience on a professional stage.
For BYU, the tournament offered a chance to cheer for familiar faces and see the Cougar golf legacy continue to grow.
The alumni’s performances reflected the steady development within the program and the connection between Provo and Utah’s golf scene. Their efforts at Black Desert added another chapter to BYU’s ongoing impact on professional golf.
