Rob Grube ties for 14th on the PGA Tour at the Reno-Tahoe Open
Recent graduate Rob Grube ('08), a 4-time All-American, completed play at his first PGA Tour event with a final round 68 to tie for 14th at the Reno-Tahoe Open played at the Montreux Golf & Country Club in Reno, Nevada. His 7-under 281 total earned Rob $48,000 in the event where he received a sponsor's exemption.
Here's the complete leaderboard for the tournament.
After beginning the tournament with a solid 2-under 70, Rob was struggling on his second round as he was 4-over for his round through 15 holes, 2 strokes above the cut line of even par. Grube made clutch birdies on the tough 16th and par five 17th holes, however, to finish his round of 74 barely making the cut line.
On the weekend, he shot rounds of 69 and a final round of 68 to finish strong, as he shot the lowest weekend total in the field (tied with one other player).
Notah Begay III ('95), former Stanford all-time great, who won the inaugural Reno-Tahoe event 10 years ago, finished tied for 53rd at even par 288 after shooting a final round 75. Here's a good article about Notah from the Reno Gazette-Journal after his third round of 70. The photograph from the Reno Gazette-Journal is taken by Tim Dunn/RGJ.
