DURHAM – The Duke women's golf program is preparing to head to NCAA Regional action this weekend, but prior to the Blue Devils hitting the road the ACC announced Thursday that sophomore Phoebe Brinker was tabbed the ACC Golfer of the Month for April.
Brinker recently registered her first collegiate victory at the ACC Championship, which was contested at The Reserve Golf Club in Pawley's Island, S.C.
A native of Wilmington, Del., Brinker became the 15th different Blue Devil in school history to win an ACC Championship, after carding a 54-hole ledger of 10-under-par, 206, over 54 holes. Her winning score matched the Duke ACC Championship record of former teammate Gina Kim from just a year ago. Brinker was also the only golfer to shoot under par in each of the three days.
Brinker registered rounds of 70, 65, and 71, finishing six strokes ahead of teammate Erica Shepherd. The pair were two of only three golfers on the final day to shoot under par. Brinker's second round of 7-under, 65, matched the ACC record for lowest 18-hole score in championship history.
Brinker hit 37-of-42 fairways and 46-of-54 greens during the stroke play portion of the event.
As a team, Duke finished third in stroke play, before concluding its ACC Championship run with a semifinal loss in match play.
The Blue Devils will next compete in the NCAA Franklin Regional from May 9-11 with 11 other teams. The top four teams following 54 holes of stroke play will advance to the NCAA Championship.
