The 2015 graduate of the University of Washington wants to play Augusta National Golf Club one day, and given his impressive track record in the game so far, odds are that he’ll do so in front of large galleries with a green jacket on the line.
Cheng Tsung Pan
Cheng Tsung Pan didn’t take long to win as a professional last season, racking up two wins on the Mackenzie Tour –PGA TOUR Canada: The Players Cup and Cape Breton Celtic Classic presented by PC Financial. He closed with a 66 in both events, claiming the latter in a playoff with current Web.com Tour member Taylor Pendrith. His quick success wasn’t a surprise, given what he had already achieved. Cheng Tsung Pan was a four-time All-American for the Huskies and a Ben Hogan Award finalist in 2015, when he finished second individually at the NCAA Championships. He has gotten a taste of major championships, competing in The Open Championship two years ago and in the U.S. Open in 2011 at Congressional, 2013 at Merion and 2015 at Chambers Bay. Cheng Tsung Pan made the cut in his last two U.S. Open appearances, and he didn’t lack for fan support at Chambers Bay not far from his college campus. Cheng Tsung Pan has three top-15 finishes in nine starts so far on the Web.com Tour in 2016, the last, at the BMW Charity Pro-Am Presented by SYNNEX Corporation, on the strength of a season-low 63 in the second round.
