ATHENS, Ga. - Ryan Hybl of the Georgia men's golf team has been selected to compete for the United States Palmer Cup squad this summer. The Palmer Cup pits Americans against their collegiate counterparts from Great Britain and Ireland in a Ryder Cup-style format. This year's event will take place July 11-12 at Doonbeg Golf Club in County Clare, Ireland. Earlier, Georgia coach Chris Haack was selected as the U.S. captain.
"Needless to say, this is quite an honor," said Hybl, a sophomore from Colbert, Ga. "The goal for all players is to one day represent your country, but to also represent my school and have my coach serve as captain makes this even more special."
"Ryan certainly deserves this opportunity," Haack said. "He has established himself as one of the nation's top individuals through hard work and dedication, so it's appropriate that he receive this recognition."
