Arizona men’s golf coach Jim Anderson, attempting to rebuild the Wildcats into a national power, is expected to begin the 2017-18 fall season with Guan Tianlang, the youngest player ever (at 14) to make the cut at the Masters. Tianlang, now 18, finished 58th in the 2013 Masters. He has been playing amateur events globally the last five years and is expected to move to Tucson for the fall semester in August.
