Arizona State sophomore David Puig is playing with the confidence of a fifth-year senior early on in his collegiate career.
After playing just four events as a freshman due to the COVID-19 pandemic-shortened season, the native of La Garriga, Spain, has now won consecutive events to start the spring, claiming last week’s Amer Ari Invitational in Waimea, Hawaii, and the Southwestern Invitational in Westlake Village, California, before that.
“Puig is playing extremely well. He’s putting well, he’s playing with great emotion, energy, and confidence. [It’s] fun to see him win again and see his potential,” said head coach Matt Thurmond.
