Texas Longhorns' Golfer Beau Hossler Plays Through Injury, Putts Out of Bunker to Advance to Finals
By Michael Shamburger
University of Texas golfer Beau Hossler is currently playing in the NCAA golf tournament. On Tuesday, Hossler appeared to injure himself during a drive. Hossler swung and immediately grabbed his left shoulder.
Hossler somehow managed to hit again…
The injury was so bad that Hossler ended up putting out of a bunker, leaving himself with a 30 foot putt to send Texas to the finals. He stepped up and drained it.
Hossler Tweeted that he would be playing in the final, which is good for Texas because if he wouldn’t have been able to go, the Longhorns would not have been able to replace him and would have started down.
Thank you for all the love and support. I will be fine. Looking forward to tomorrow ?

UPDATE: Hossler will not be playing in his finals match against Zach Foushee. Texas had to concede the match and will start down one.
