Thantup Saengvut had the tournament of his career shooting 4-under par in the Central Plains Invitational this past week in Salina, Kansas. His three-round total tallied up to 212 (70-71-71) which boosted him to some hardware this weekend placing third in a 42-man field. Saengvut was able to thrive in the tough tests of the Sand Creek Station golf course and the weather conditions at the beginning of the three-round slate.
