For its 50th year, Haskins Award unveils new-look watch list

The Haskins Award celebrates its 50th year as college golf heads into a season of uncertainty given the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on college sports.

With some colleges starting competition this fall and others waiting until the spring, the list has been modified to reflect that reality. The watch list is actually two lists in one, with those able to compete this fall in one list and those having to wait until the spring to play in another.

The list is as stacked as it has ever been (it includes the top four in the Golfweek/AmateurGolf.com World Amateur Ranking), with two major forces at play.

First, with COVID-19 halting last year's college season, the NCAA granted players an additional year of eligibility, which several players who would have graduated have since taken advantage of. Second, this season will be the first played since the introduction of the PGA Tour University ranking, which will send five seniors directly to the Korn Ferry Tour after the college season ends.

Past recipients include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Ben Crenshaw, and Justin Thomas. The Fred Haskins Award is the oldest individual college golf award and the only award to be voted on by players, coaches, golf SID's, and select golf media.
