COLUMBUS, Ga. – The Haskins Foundation revealed its final watch list of the Fall for the ANNIKA Award on Tuesday, with Veronika Kedronova of the Kent State Dr. Paula Treckel women's golf team receiving recognition.
Created in 2014, the ANNIKA Award presented by Stifel is annually given to the top female Division 1 collegiate golfer; the winner voted on by players, coaches and members of the college golf media. Named for Annika Sorenstam, the award was created in partnership with the Haskins Foundation to acknowledge the top female golfer and to match the Haskins Award presented by Stifel, which acknowledges the top male Division I collegiate golfer. Mirabel Ting (Florida State) became the 12th ANNIKA Award winner in 2025.
Kedronova earns the nod after a phenomenal Fall season, which concluded with back-to-back individual wins at the Canadian Collegiate and Landfall Tradition. At the Landfall Tradition, featuring five top-25 teams, she earned a seven-stroke victory en route to setting a new program record for lowest 54-hole score with a 13-under-par 203, surpassing the previous record of 204 set by Pimnipa Panthong at the 2016 Jim West Invitational. In 11 rounds of play this Fall, Kedronova has accumulated four rounds in the 60s, seven rounds of par or better, three top-ten finishes, and a career low round of 7-under-par (65) in the second round of the Landfall Tradition.
