WGOLF Fall Watchlists

Women's Golf McKenzie Williams - Sports Information Graduate Assistant

Three Emory Golfers Named to WGCA Player of the Year Watchlist; John Sjoberg Named to WGCA Coach of the Year Watchlist

Emory women's golfers Amanda Zheng, Carys Code and Zimo Li were named to the fall watchlist for the Division III PING WGCA Player of the Year award Thursday afternoon while Director of Golf John Sjoberg was named to the watchlist for the Jackie Steinmann WGCA Coach of the Year award presented by Golf Pride. 

Sjoberg led the Emory women's golfers to an undefeated fall season as they captured four wins, including their fourth UAA conference title in program history. The team also shattered the team three-round scoring record at the Tartan Invitational with a team total 846 (-18) to become the No. 1 ranked women's golf team in Division III.

Zheng had a remarkable fall season, earning All-UAA Tournament honors, two individual titles and three UAA Athlete of the Week awards as she delivered a 70.4 scoring average through fall competition. The sophomore also broke the individual three-round scoring record at the Tartan Invitational, shooting a 205 (-11) to capture the individual title and is the No. 1 ranked women's golfer in Division III going into the spring season.

As the current reigning PING WGCA Player of the Year, Li is currently the No. 2 ranked women's golfer in Division III after a stellar start to the season. The junior was named the UAA Tournament MVP as she helped lead the Eagles to victory and delivered top ten individual placements in all three stroke play tournaments, with her season-best coming at the Hollins Cup where she took third place. 

Code had a phenomenal start to her senior campaign this fall, ending as the No. 9 ranked women's golfer in Division III as she delivered a scoring average of 71.17 with top 20 placements at all three stroke play events. Her lowest round of the fall season came in Emory' record-breaking performance at the Tartan Invitational where the senior carded a 69 (-3) in the second round. 

The Eagles will return to the course on February 20, 2027 as they head to Melbourne, FL for the Space Coast Classic.
