COACHES THOUGHTS WITH GARRETT CLEGG
On Brandon Robison's seventh place finish…
"Brandon is a great player who has been struggling this season so him having a good week is awesome. He still has some things to clean up—he's good enough to compete for tournament wins. He had a good tournament, and it was nice to see him play good golf. Other than that, we have a lot of work to do because right now we are not performing at a high enough level."
UP NEXT
