SwingU, the sports technology and media company, would like to congratulate SwingU Tour Ambassador Graysen Huff on his playoff victory at the Rolling Red Tour Mirror Lake Classic at Mirror Lake Golf Club in Villa Rica, Ga.
Huff, a second-year pro out of the University of Auburn who started using SwingU in November 2021 to track his stats and guide his practice sessions, shot a two-round total of 4-under par 140 to claim his first professional victory.
Huff fired a second-round 6-under par 66 in difficult weather conditions to come from three strokes back to earn a three-shot win.
“It’s my first professional win, so this will always be something special,” Huff said. “It’s really hard to win in this sport, so to put the pieces together, it gives me a lot of confidence and it’ll be something that I’ll remember for a lifetime.”
Over 36 holes, Huff leaned on stellar iron play and solid putting to get the victory. He picked up +3.4 strokes gained vs. par on approach and another +2.4 strokes gained: putting. Huff made nine birdies against four bogeys and one double-bogey over the course of the event.
“When I first (partnered) with SwingU, I wanted a tangible way to look at stats,” Huff said. “SwingU’s platform has allowed me to do that — to see trends, where I’m going, what’s been happening. That’s been the big thing for me.”
Shortly after receiving his winner’s check, Huff traveled to Argentina where he will resume his PGA Tour Latinoamerica season. Huff ranks 57th on the circuit in points through three events.
The Tour has nine events remaining on its 2021-22 schedule, culminating with the PGA Tour Latinoamerica Tour Championship at PGA Riviera Maya in Tulum, Mexico.
Since the start of 2021, more than 100 active professional and top-tier collegiate golfers are using the SwingU App and performance data platform to track their strokes gained and game-improvement data.
