Ole Miss Men’s Golf Team Claims Co-Champion Victory

The No. 13 Ole Miss men’s golf team concluded their regular season on April 14, 2026, securing co-champion honors at the Mossy Oak Collegiate in West Point, Mississippi. The Rebels finished the tournament with a total score of 847 (-17), sharing the team title with Mississippi State.

This result marks the second victory of the season for the Ole Miss program and represents the 11th tournament sweep under the leadership of head coach Chris Malloy. Malloy, the reigning Golfweek coach of the year, has guided the team to 14 team titles and 10 different individual winners for a total of 28 individual wins during his tenure.

Individual Performance and Titles

Senior Tom Fischer earned a share of the individual title, marking the second individual victory of his career. Fischer finished the tournament at 8-under par, sharing the co-medalist honors with Dain Richie of Mississippi State.

Fischer’s performance was characterized by consistent scoring, as he recorded his sixth consecutive under-par round. During his final 18 holes on April 14, 2026, he shot a 2-under 70, including a strong finish where he played the final five holes at 2-under par to secure his share of the title.

Fischer is the third Rebel to win at least a portion of an individual title this season, joining teammates Daniel Tolf and Cameron Tankersley.
