COLUMBUS, Ga. (Nov. 14, 2024) – Charleston men’s golf senior
Kieron van Wyk has been named to the 2024-2025 Haskins Award presented by Stifel Final Fall Watch List.
van Wyk is one of 25 collegiate golfers named to the list. Beginning in 1971, the Fred Haskins Award presented by Stifel is annually given to the top male U.S. collegiate golfer as voted on by only college golfers, coaches and members of the golf media. Past winners of the Haskins Award presented by Stifel have captured 33 major championships and more than 400 professional tournaments around the world. Named in honor of Fred Haskins, the award is managed by the Haskins Foundation to acknowledge the top male golfer at the end of the season and to match the ANNIKA Award presented by Stifel, which acknowledges the top female Division I collegiate golfer.
van Wyk is currently ranked No. 5 in the country. He most recently won the White Sands Invitational by a five-shot margin. The senior from South Africa went 64-66-65 to go 21-under and win the event. With the victory, van Wyk earns a spot in the PGA Tour's Puerto Rico Open in March.
Stifel, one of the nation's leading wealth management and investment banking firms, serves as the presenting sponsor of both the ANNIKA and Haskins Awards, recognizing annually the most outstanding NCAA Division I female and male college golfers. Stifel also serves as a presenting sponsor for the NCAA Division I Women's and Men's Golf Championships on GOLF Channel.
