The Floridant/10277099

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - Floridant -- It may not be the Master's, but for 19-year-old Preston Worch, breaking the Mizner Country Club course record is a thrilling milestone. Scoring an impressive 62, Preston's round included 9 birdies and an eagle on the final hole, underscoring the significance of his achievement. Mizner is renowned for being one of the most challenging courses in South Florida.

A student at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, Preston is a dedicated golfer. He plays at college and takes full advantage of the Mizner course four to five times a week when home, having lived in Mizner with his family for the past three years.

"I was ecstatic and thrilled right when it happened and really didn't know how to react," said Preston. "Breaking the course record wasn't even a thought until the eighth hole when I was a few strokes under. Now, every time I play Mizner, my goal is to beat my record. It will be hard, but I am looking forward to it!"
