Record-breaking golfer started off a little green

After a freshman campaign in which his best finish was ninth place, Green knew he still had plenty of room to grow to compete with some of the best amateur golfers in America.

Now Green has emerged as one of the best golfers in UNM history, and the win that helped him onto that path didn’t happen on U.S.

Green, who is from Kuala Lumpur, won the Malaysian Amateur Open in the summer of 2012, becoming the first Malaysian to win the event since 1997.

Green then started to pile up wins at UNM.

In 2014 the senior golfer broke UNM’s record for most individual titles in a career after winning the Tucker for the third straight time.

Green was recognized as one of the top golfers in America this past week when he was named one of 10 semifinalists for the Ben Hogan Award the most prestigious award in golf.

Green said Millican has helped him bring his game to the next level.

After he graduates, Green said he will turn pro and play professionally full-time.
