Senior (2005):
Hamm made the All-America team for the second consecutive
year after finishing 22nd at the NCAA national championships. He is
one of three Emory golfers ever to make the All-America team twice.
Hamm shot a 304 at the nationals, the 13th-best ever by an Emory
golfer in the NCAA championships. He made the all-conference team
for the second time and the all-state team for the first time. Hamm
was second on the team with a 76.5 stroke average per 18 holes,
16th lowest in school history. He was eighth in the field of 80
golfers at the Division III Preview Tournament, in which teams play
on the same course to be used for the national championships. Hamm
placed among the top 20 individuals in three tournaments this
season. He graduated in 10th place on the school's all-time list
with a career average of 77.15 shots per round.
Junior (2004):
Junior Timothy Hamm became the fifth Eagle ever to earn
All-America honors. Hamm, a second-team All-American, did so by
finishing seventh out of 120 golfers with a 72-hole score of 294
(six-over-par) at the NCAA championships. His 294 is a school
record at the NCAA tournament. Hamm shot a 71 on the final day,
third-best ever by an Eagle in an NCAA championship. Hamm won the
conference individual championship by beating out teammate Jason
Scherr on the first playoff hole. Hamm's conference title is the
11th ever by an Eagle in the conference's 17-year history. As a
result, Hamm was named to the all-conference team for the first
time in his career. Hamm finished eighth in the Georgia Cup, based
on season-long performances in selected tournament by NCAA Division
III golfers. He recorded the third-best season scoring average, and
a personal best, in school history with his season stroke average
of 74.84 shots per round. He shot under 77 in 19 of his 25 rounds
this season. Hamm's season-best round was 69 at the Pfeiffer
Invitational, and his best score for a 36-hole tournament was 142
(done twice), tying the fifth-best score in school history. He
finished in the top 10 in five tournaments and the top 20 in six
tournaments. In addition to winning the conference, Hamm also was a
co-medalist, along with teammate Jason Scherr, at the Mary
Hardin-Baylor Invitational. That made him the sixth Eagle golfer
ever to win two tournaments in a single season. Hamm had a season
won-loss record of 779-221. His career scoring average, 77.49, puts
him on pace to finish ninth all-time in the Emory record book.
Sophomore (2003):

firing four rounds in his second season golfing for the Eagles
Freshman (2002):
