Henry Shimp lost 2 and 1. He was playing from behind most of the match but had tied it up on 15. He then lost 16 (he bogeyed) and 17 (opponent birdied). BTW, does anybody know if he is pulling an Anna Wilson and coming back for a 6th year?
The last paragraph of the schedule announcement is the first confirmation I have seen that Shimp is returning for a 6th year. This is a really nice development for Coach Ray and Stanford golf. Shimp had a strong finish to the season last spring. He was 6th at Pasatiempo and then tied for the medal at the P12s, but lost in a playoff.

Coach Ray told me a couple weeks ago but asked me to keep it under wraps. With the whole roster back and a full year of coaching i think the team has some solid upside potential. Thorbjornsen & Brown are probably the best two players but Shimp could contend at the top
In the most recent WAGR: #27- Thorbjornsen, #40- Brown, #50- Fillips, #220- Ng, #237- Shrimp, #283- Yang(incoming FR), #445- Beber-Frankl, #497- Tuleubayev (all top 500). Would love to see another top 50 for 2022.
