Men's Golf - Arkansas Razorbacks

Razorback All-American Jacob Skov Olesen fired an opening-round 4-under-par 67 to sit atop the leaderboard at the 153rd The Open Championship.

Seven Razorbacks – six current and one graduate – will play in the 119th Southern Amateur, held July 16-19 at The Blessings Golf Club.

The Arkansas Razorbacks place 120 student-athletes on the 2024-25 First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll as part of a total of 1,903 student-athletes across the league.

For a record-breaking fifth-consecutive year, Arkansas has earned a top-20 finish in the Learfield Directors’ Cup Standings. The Razorbacks ranked No. 5 in the Southeastern Conference and No. 11 overall in the final standings released on Thursday by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of America (NACDA).

Arkansas head coach Brad McMakin announced the addition of transfers Niilo Mäki-Petäjä and Camden Smith. The two will be juniors on the 2025-26 Razorback men’s golf team.

The 2024-25 season for Arkansas men’s golf came to an end after a seventh-place finish (852 / +12) at the NCAA Amherst Regional, played at the par 70 Popular Grove Golf Club. Individually, Mark Stockdale tied for sixth and Thomas Curry tied for 20th.

Due to heavy rain and lightning, round three of the NCAA Amherst Regional was suspended Tuesday after Arkansas played 3-to-6 holes. The Regional is set to resume on Wednesday at 6:30 am (CT).

Despite steady rain and conditions Razorback head coach Brad McMakin described as “horrible,”, the second round of the NCAA Amherst Regional was completed and Arkansas stands in sixth at +6 (566) with Mark Stockdale and Thomas Curry each among the top 10 individually.
