The ANNIKA Award, presented by Stifel, honors the top female Division I collegiate golfer of the year, with the winner recognized for performance, sportsmanship, and impact on the game. Named after and presented by golf legend Annika Sörenstam, the award was created in partnership with the Haskins Foundation and the ANNIKA Foundation, serving as the women’s counterpart to the Haskins Award for men’s college golf.

The most recent winner, Mirabel Ting of Florida State, joined an accomplished list of past honorees representing top programs nationwide.
The 2025–2026 ANNIKA Award Preseason Watch List will be unveiled on August 25, spotlighting the top returning players in women’s college golf. Compiled by Golfweek and Golf Channel writers, the list will feature standout performers based on past results, current form, and projected impact for the upcoming season.
