In the season-opening win for the Crimson Tide, Clemons claimed medalist honors.

A junior from England, Clemons finished the tournament with a score of 9-under par 204 (69-66-69).

Clemons also carded three consecutive rounds in the 60s and posted a second-round score of 5-under par 66.

With the win, Clemons became the first Alabama golfer to win in his debut tournament since Justin Thomas claimed the title at the Carpet Capital Collegiate in the 2011-12 season.

Clemons secured the individual title by one stroke over Texas golfer Tommy Morrison, who finished at 8-under par. He recorded just one bogey in his final round while sinking three birdies.
