Logan Reilly and Preston Stout are co-winners of the men\u2019s individual title at the East Lake Cup<\/a>, where they each posted record-setting 7-under 65s on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

An Auburn sophomore, Reilly completed his historic round before Stout, officially breaking the East Lake Golf Club record for a men\u2019s collegiate round. The previous record holders at 6 under were Scottie Scheffler while he was at Texas <\/a>and Oklahoma State\u2019s Zach Bauchou.<\/p>\n

Reilly, who clinched the winning putt for Auburn\u2019s NCAA team championship in June 2026, carded eight birdies and one bogey for a career-best 65. <\/p>\n

Stout, the Oklahoma State senior and world\u2019s top-ranked amateur, nailed a birdie putt at the 18th hole<\/a> to match Reilly\u2019s 65 about a half hour later for his ninth collegiate win.<\/p>\n

Reilly\u2019s turn through the final hole didn\u2019t play out as easy but he still was able to par thanks to this tremendous approach shot.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got over it and knew that was the play for sure and I agreed with my coaches and took it on,\u201d said Reilly of his big gamble at 18 when asked if he ever thought of pitching it out to his left.<\/p>\n

Stout said he wasn\u2019t looking at the scoreboard but was aware of his deficit during the back nine because he was playing with Reilly\u2019s teammate, Josiah Gilbert.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was telling me, \u2018Oh Logan, made another birdie another birdie.\u2019 Great, I don\u2019t really want to know but thanks for telling me,\u201d Stout joked in his post-round interview. \u201cBut I did ask Josiah on 18 if [Logan] finished at 6 or 7 and he told me and that helped feed me down the stretch.\u201d<\/p>\n

The East Lake Cup continues with match play on Tuesday in Atlanta. Auburn earned the No. 1 seed on the men\u2019s side after topping Oklahoma State by two shots in stroke play. The Tigers will face No. 4 Arizona, while No. 2 Oklahoma State meets No. 3 UCLA.<\/p>\n

In the women\u2019s competition, Arkansas senior Mar\u00eda Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00edn won the individual title<\/a> at 5 under earlier in the day. Top-seeded USC will face No. 4 Oklahoma State in Tuesday\u2019s match-play semifinals, while No. 2 Arkansas takes on No. 3 Eastern Michigan.<\/p>\n
