Men's Golfer Johnson Named Big South Golfer of the Week

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Coastal Carolina junior men’s golfer Dustin Johnson (Lexington, S.C.) was selected as the Choice Hotels Big South Men’s Golfer of the Week for events played Oct. 6-12, it was announced today by the League office.   Johnson earns his second-straight weekly honor after he fired a 15-under 201 (67-67-67) to take home medalist honors at the Coca-Cola Duke Golf Classic this past week.  He carded three consecutive 67s, including a chip-in birdie on the last hole, to lead Coastal to a tie for second in the event with two top-10 and six top-40 teams in the field.  Johnson’s 201 is the second-lowest 54-hole total in school history, as he set the school record at the NCAA East Regional last year with a 198 to capture medalist honors.
