RIO GRANDE, PR. - Nevill Ruiter shot a bogey-free 65 (-7) in the final round of the 2026 Puerto Rico Classic hosted by Purdue to lead the Cougars to a T6 finish in a field featuring eight top 50 teams. Charleston beat six Power 4 programs in Georgia (#32), Iowa, Louisville (#29), Minnesota, Purdue (#37), and Wisconsin.
The Cougars finished the tournament 28-under. Charleston's 14-under final round was the second lowest round of the day and the program's top round so far this season. All five Cougars turned in final cards under par.
Ruiter climbed 34 spots in the individual standings with his Wednesday performance, finishing T18. He sank seven birdies during the round, including three straight on holes four, five, and six.
Miles Eubanks and Johan Bredenkamp each totaled 16 birdies over three rounds, the seventh most among all competitors. In his first tournament as a Cougar, Jules Lauer turned in 70, 69, and 72 rounds. His 69 was the Charleston low round on day two in Rio Grande.
