Washington’s Pan on Hogan Watch list

The Colonial Country Club, The Friends of Golf (FOG) and the Golf Coaches Association of America announced the 24 collegiate golfers named to the 2015 Ben Hogan Award Watch List, including Washington’s Cheng-Tsung Pan.

Pan becomes the first player in the award’s history to be named to the watch list four times. He is a three-time semifinalist and can make it four when those honorees are announced in April.

The Miaoli County, Taiwan native is putting up a historic season so far for the Huskies, winning three times on his way to be the No. 1 ranked collegiate player by both Golfweek and Golfstat. Pan has won the Amer Ari Invitational in Hawai’i, the Querencia Cabo Collegiate in Mexico and the Lamkin San Diego Classic in California.

The list of 10 semifinalists will be unveiled on April 15. On May 6, that group will be pared down to three finalists. The winner will be crowned at a black-tie banquet at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 18, prior to the start of the PGA Tour’s Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial Country Club.
