Lindstrom Completes Second Round of NCAA Regional
May 19, 2026 | Men's Golf
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Kansas State's Alex Lindstrom carded a second-round score of 3-over par 74 on Tuesday during the second round of the 2026 NCAA Corvallis Regional held at the par-71, 7,361-yard Trysting Tree Golf Club.
Â
Lindstrom fell to a tie for 29th place with a 36-hole score of 1-under par 141 ahead of Wednesday's final round.
Â
"I thought Alex played a lot better than the score would indicate," head coach Grant Robbins said. "He hit a lot of quality shots, especially on the back 9. However, his speed was a little off on the greens, and those 5-6 foot putts he made yesterday just missed a little on the high side today. He will make some adjustments to his putting, and he is poised for a low round tomorrow."
Â
A native of Halmstad, Sweden, Lindstrom started off on a right foot with a birdie on No. 2, but he bogeyed Nos. 4, 6 and 7 for a 2-over par front 9. His second half of the round nearly mirrored the first as he birdied No. 10 with bogeys on Nos. 13 and 17.
Â
Lindstrom ranks 12th among competitors that are currently in line to not be on an advancing team. The top five teams and top individual on a non-advancing team will move on to the 2026 NCAA Championship. Oklahoma's Ryder Cowan holds the individual lead at 9-under par 133, while the Sooners are the top team at 28-under par 540.
Â
The final round of the 2026 NCAA Corvallis Regional is on Wednesday with Lindstrom teeing off at 9:42 a.m. (PT). Live results can be followed on SCOREBOARD powered by Clippd, while video coverage is available on Babygrande Golf.
