A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO CELEBRATE THE CLEMSON UNIVERSITY MEN'S GOLF TEAM AND COACHES ON THEIR FABULOUS WIN OF THE 2021 ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Whereas, on Monday, April 26, 2021, at the Capital City Crabapple Course in Atlanta, Georgia, Zack Gordon made a 20-foot birdie putt on the third playoff hole to defeat Grayson Porter and give fourth-ranked Clemson a 3-2 victory over second-ranked Florida State in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Match Play Championship; and

Whereas, the Tigers are coached by the legendary Larry Penley, ably supported by Assistant Coach Jordan Byrd and Assistant Athletic Trainer Raz Razayeski. It was the tenth ACC title for Head Coach Penley, who is retiring at the conclusion of this season. The April 26 triumph brought his overall wins to 83, more than any other coach in ACC history; and

Whereas, Gordon's 21-hole victory was the climax of an incredible comeback for the Tigers, who never had the overall lead in the match until Gordon's putt. His birdie came on the 216-yard par three third hole, and it was the only birdie of the tournament on that hole by any Clemson player. Clemson players had played the hole 25 times without a birdie in stroke play and match play until Gordon's putt; and

Whereas, Porter had an 18-foot putt from above the hole to attempt to tie the match, but the putt missed by inches, giving Clemson its eleventh ACC Championship in program history; and

Whereas, Clemson now awaits its NCAA Regional bid on May 5, 2021, when assignments will be announced on the Golf Channel. The Tigers are well positioned to be a number-one seed at one of the six sites; and

Whereas, members of the championship team are Jacob Bridgeman, Kyle Cottam, Zack Gordon, Matias La Grutta, William Nottingham, Colby Patton, Carter Pendley, Turk Pettit, Kian Rose, and Drayton Stewart; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives salutes the Tigers on earning this, their latest accolade, the 2021 ACC Match Play Championship title. The members look forward to hearing of their further accomplishments in the days ahead. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, celebrate the Clemson University men's golf team and coaches on their fabulous win of the 2021 Atlantic Coast Conference Match Play Championship title.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to President James P. Clements and Head Coach Larry Penley of Clemson University.
