BY JACK BARRETT, THE DARTMOUTH STAFF
PUBLISHED ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2009I sat down with captain
Davis Mullany '11 and
Teddy Overton '12 Saturday after the first day of the Dartmouth Invitational to talk about Dartmouth golf.
A lot of people are familiar with how professional golf works. How does that differ in format in college?DM: The format is you have five guys play, you pick your best five guys, and you take the best four scores out of the five, and then you add them up. We play a lot of different schools at one time, not just one. Today [at the Dartmouth Invitational] there were about 10 schools at this tournament.
What are your guys' expectations for the upcoming year?
DM: Last year was a little bit of a building year. We got Pete [Williamson '12] as a freshman and he had a great year.
James Pleat ['13] is a new freshman and he's in second place right now. He played really well today.
TO: We're looking to step up our game this season.
Being on the golf team allows you to play a lot of great courses, like when you guys played at Bethpage in Long Island, N.Y., last weekend. What's that like?TO: It's an awesome experience. You don't get to play great courses for free, especially not in a tournament setting.
