    DIVISION I MEN’S GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK Championship History All-Time Team Participation/Finishes Team Match Play Results All-Time Team Results Regional Team Results Individual Awards 2019 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS NCAA Division I men’s golf championship: Stanford beats Texas to win national championship. Stanford won the 2019 DI Men’s Golf Championship on Wednesday in Fayetteville, Arkansas, riding its talented veterans to the ninth national title in program history. Isaiah Salinda and Brandon Wu, both senior All-Americans, were unbeaten in three matches at Blessings Golf Club to lift sixth-seeded Stanford over No. 5 Texas 3-2 in the finals. “Endurance is a big part of it. It’s hard to stay focused that whole time, especially on this course,” Stanford coach Conrad Ray said. “It’s demanding with the turnaround, and we were down early. Our guys hung in there and pushed above Texas.” Henry Shimp, a junior, clinched the trophy for Stanford, which arrived in Arkansas as the nation’s hottest team. With two points already on the board, Shimp hit a clutch 9-iron approach shot within three feet of the cup at 16 and made birdie to take a 2-up lead against Spencer Soosman. On 17, he two-putted for par from 20 feet to win the match, setting off a celebration with his teammates on the par-3 green. Stanford fell behind early in the championship match but seized control as the matches reached the turn and kept the pressure on the Longhorns by hitting fairways, greens and key putts. “Isaiah (Salinda) and Brandon’s (Wu) leadership is huge,” Ray said.
