With every passing week, the women’s college golf season creeps closer to the NCAA Championship at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa in Carlsbad, California.
The Annika Award presented by Stifel announced Monday its first spring watch list, featuring 15 of the best women’s college golfers this season. Maisie Filler, a senior at Florida who has risen to No. 1 in the NCAA college golf rankings, is having a great season, but there are plenty of other big names in contention.
The Annika Award honors the player of the year in men’s college golf, as selected by college golfers, coaches and members of the college golf media. The players are listed alphabetically. Players on the Annika Award Watch List were selected by a panel of Golfweek and Golf Channel reporters.
