Schniederjans Wins in Singles for USA at Palmer Cup

June 27, 2014

Walton-on-the-Hill, England – Georgia Tech’s Ollie Schniederjans defeated Europe’s Pep Angles Friday morning while the United States won four singles matches and halved three others to pull into a tie at 10 apiece at the Palmer Cup at Walton Heath Golf Club.

 

It marks the first time the two sides were tied entering the final round since 2005 at Whistling Straits.

 

The Americans won the first four matches to finish Friday to pull ahead before the Europeans went 3-0-3 in the later matches to come away even at the end of the day.

 

Schniederjans, Tech’s rising senior from Powder Springs, Ga., pushed Team USA ahead in the second match to finish with a 3 and 1 result over Pep Angles. The two halved the first hole before Schniederjans won the next three to build a lead he would not relinquish. Angles was able to cut the lead to 2-down on four occasions but conceded No. 17 to end the match.

 

Trey Mullinax won the opening match of the day, downing Thomas Detry, 3 and 1, and the American winning streak extended to three matches when Robby Shelton defeated Jon Rahm, 1-up. Bryson Dechambeau claimed another for the U.S., beating Louis Tomlinson, 5 and 4, which gave the United States an 8 ½-5 ½ lead at the time.

 

Ricardo Gouveia ended the American winning streak when he beat Brandon Hagy, 1-up.

 

Final round singles matches tee off at 9 a.m. Saturday. Schniederjans will be fourth off the tee for the Americans against Tomlinson.
