Orlando – Incoming UCF freshman Egor Eroshenko gave a preview of what he is capable of on the golf course over the weekend as he took first place at the Russian Open, shooting 288(E) in four rounds of play to claim the top spot.
The event, which took place from Wednesday, August 5 through Saturday, August 8 was played at the Links National Golf Club in Teleshovo, Moscow Oblast, Russia.
