LIZ MURPHEY COLLEGIATE CLASSIC The list of golfers who have competed collegiately in the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic reads like a “Who’s Who” of women’s golf, including LPGA Hall of Famers Beth Daniel, Betsy King and Julie Inkster. The LMCC, one of the oldest continuous sporting events in all of women’s intercollegiate athletics, will be contested for the 48th time on March 20-22, 2020. The event began in 1973 as the Georgia Invitational before becoming the Women’s Southern Intercollegiates from 1977-94. In 1995, it was renamed in honor of Liz Murphey, UGA’s Hall of Fame golf coach and long-time Senior Woman Administrator. Georgia has enjoyed much success protecting its home turf. The Bulldogs have won 14 team titles and produced 12 medalists.
In 2014, the Liz Murphey altered its format to feature stroke play and match play in advance of a similar change for the 2015 NCAA Championships. Seven teams from the next three Liz Murpheys went on to reach match play at the NCAAs later that season. In 2015, Stanford competed in the consolation bracket at the LMCC but went on to win the national title.

LIZ MURPHEY TRIBUTE A TRUE PIONEER IN WOMEN’S ATHLETICS Liz Murphey was one of the leading figures in the evolution and development of women’s intercollegiate athletics both on the national level and at the University of Georgia. A Newnan, Ga., native, Murphey was not only an outstanding women’s golf coach but also led the overall Lady Bulldog women’s sports program to prominence in the 1980s and 1990s as its senior woman administrator. She died November 23, 2005, following a short illness. “Liz was certainly one of the national pioneers in women’s athletics and one that provided the real foundation for the program here at Georgia,” said former UGA Director of Athletics Vince Dooley. “Her work at Georgia was recognized across the country both as an administrator and golf coach.” Murphey joined the university faculty in 1967 as an assistant professor of physical education and women’s golf coach. She coordinated the women’s club sports program until being named assistant athletic director for women’s sports in 1978. When UGA officially added women’s golf as an intercollegiate sport in the fall of 1978, Murphey already had a solid foundation in place. She led the Lady Bulldogs to 21 team and 18 individual titles from 1978-86.
Under Murphey, Georgia finished in the top 10 at each national championship from 1979-83, including second at the 1981 AIAWs and third at the 1983 NCAAs. Additionally, Terri Moody and Cindy Schreyer won individual national titles in 1981 and 1984, respectively. Murphey was the first-ever NGCA National Coach of the Year in 1984, and she was a charter member of that organization’s Hall of Fame. Two of her most prestigious honors were the 1996 Rolex Meritorious Service Award and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Association of Collegiate Women’s Athletic Adminstators in 2003. Under her leadership, Georgia won eight of the 14 SEC women’s all-sports awards, secured four national team championships and captured an additional 31 individual national titles. Murphey retired from the University in May 1996. She was inducted into the UGA Athletic Association’s Circle of Honor – the school’s highest tribute paid to former athletes or coaches – in 2001. Murphey’s legacy lives on. For more than four decades, Georgia has hosted the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic, appropriately one of the nation’s oldest women’s collegiate athletic events in any sport.
Liz’s Legacy Liz Murphey’s fingerprints remain on UGA women’s athletics long after she retired. Murphey hired current Georgia women’s head coaches Jack Bauerle (swimming and diving) and Jeff Wallace (tennis), as well as previous standouts Andy Landers (basketball) and Suzanne Yoculan (gymnastics). That quartet has combined to lead 19 teams to NCAA Championships and 45 squads to SEC Championships in their respective sports. She also brought in Beans Kelly as her assistant coach in 1986 and handed the reins to the golf program over shortly thereafter. Kelly led Georgia to eight SEC titles and eight top-10 finishes at the NCAAs.
PUTTING UGA ON THE MAP

FALL RECAP YOUTHFUL BULLDOGS RECORD SOLID SHOWING IN FALL The Georgia women’s golf team – which could be considered a litter of puppies instead of full-fledged Bulldogs – showed consistent signs of progress throughout the fall campaign in 2019. Individual efforts displayed that Georgia had the nucleus to vault into status as one of the nation’s top teams during the spring of 2020. Five different freshmen and sophomores posted par-or-better rounds during the fall and occupied spots in the Bulldogs’ playing five in September and October. All told, 94.3 percent of Georgia’s counting scores from four fall events were recorded by those underclassmen. Most notably, Caterina Don quickly confirmed her capabilities to be one of college golf’s premier performers. Don, a native of Pinerolo, Italy, arrived in Athens with an impressive list of accomplishments – both individually and with the Italian National Team – and did not disappoint. In the Bulldogs’ first tournament of the fall, Don shot 9-under 135 en route to securing medalist honors at the rainshortened Minnesota Invitational. She became the first Georgia golfer to claim an individual title in her collegiate debut since Summer Sirmons did so at the 1998 Auburn Tiger Invitational, which ironically also was a rain-shortened, 36-hole event. “It’s a really special start to college golf for one of the best players in the world,” head coach Josh Brewer said. “It’s a great kickstart to her season and all of our individual performances overall. It was an impressive 36 holes of golf. To think about all the great players who have teed it up for UGA and think she’s only the second one to win her debut, that’s pretty incredible.”

Yet another freshman took center stage in the Bulldogs’ next event. After missing the lineup for the season opener, Caroline Craig led Georgia individually at The Molly in Portland, Ore. , in her collegiate debut. Craig tied for fourth on the individual leaderboard, a stroke better than Don. For Craig, the opportunity to tee it up for Georgia was a long time coming as she committed to the Bulldogs as a high school freshman. “To be able to finally put on the gear and walk out on the course – even to get out of the van, get your stuff ready and see the Georgia sign on the range – was awesome,” Craig said. “I was so ready to get out there and compete. “I was definitely very nervous, but I was extremely excited,” she continued. “I just focused on that first shot I had to hit. I was overjoyed to play so well, not only in my college debut but for my team. I know it was an amazing field, and I’d never played in Oregon before. To go out and play such a challenging course so well gave us a lot of confidence for the rest of the season.” The Bulldogs notched solid showings at the Stanford Intercollegiate and White Sands Invitational to wrap up the 2019 portion of their schedule. Don finished the fall with a slew of impressive statistics. She was a combined 9-under, shooting par or better seven times. All told, Georgia’s five underclassmen recorded 14 par-or-better scores in their combined 50 fall rounds. Caroline Craig tied for fourth in her collegiate debut for Georgia, including a 3-under 69 in the second round at The Molly.

Don Named To “Watch List”
Caterina Don was included on Golfweek’s list of 15 golfers “we have our eyes on” for the ANNIKA Award after the first few fall events of the season. The ANNIKA Award presented by Stifel, is given annually to the top female U.S. collegiate golfer as voted on by players, coaches and members of the golf media. Award namesake Annika Sorenstam enjoyed unprecedented success following her collegiate career at Arizona. In 15 years of professional golf, Sorenstam compiled 89 victories, with 10 major titles.
Bulldogs Get Big Boost In January
Georgia’s roster will receive a major addition in January when Candice Mahe, a standout from France, joins the Bulldogs as a mid-year enrollee. “Candice is truly a competitor,” Brewer said. “A lot of that comes from representing France multiple times and wanting to win as a team. Yes, she wants individual titles, but she understands and enjoys team golf and what it takes to be successful as a team. She’s really close to Caterina and Céleste. They convinced me to recruit her harder, and I’m sure glad they did.” Mahe signed with Georgia in November, days after earning gold and silver medals at the Spirit International Amateur Championship at Whispering Pines Golf Club in Texas. She helped France shoot 37-under to win the combined co-ed title and 21-under to finish second in the women’s field. The native of Gourin, France, boasts five victories since 2015, most recently winning the 2018 French Girls and the 2019 Spanish International Ladies Amateurs.

LIZ MURPHEY (1978-85)
Liz Murphey, a leader in the evolution of women’s intercollegiate athletics, had been at UGA for a decade when the school named women’s golf an intercollegiate sport. She led Georgia top-10 finishes at each national championship from 1979-83 and coached Terri Moody and Cindy Schreyer to individual national titles. Murphey also served as SWA for 18 years and guided UGA women’s athletics to six SEC All-Sports titles from 1984-94.
BEANS KELLY (1985-00)
Never labeled as predictable, Beans Kelly resigned in 2000 while seemingly on top of the college golf world. Under her tutelage, the Lady Bulldogs won 43 team and 33 individual titles, including Vicki Goetze’s 1992 NCAA title; captured seven SEC crowns; and posted eight NCAA top-10 finishes. She was named National Coach of the Year in 1998 and in 2000 became the youngest coach inducted into the NGCA Hall of Fame.
TODD McCORKLE (2000-07) Todd McCorkle arrived in Athens just months after leading Arizona to the national championship. The next spring, McCorkle coached Georgia to the program’s first-ever NCAA team title and became just the second coach in Division I history to win back-to-back NCAA championships at two schools. McCorkle also led the Bulldogs to two SEC titles and seven of his Bulldog golfers combined to earn 11 AllAmerica certificates. KELLEY HESTER (2007-12)
Kelley Hester returned to her alma mater in June 2007 and furthered the storied tradition of Georgia Golf. She led the Bulldogs to a pair of top-20 finishes in her five campaigns in Athens. Individually, Marta Silva Zamora blossomed under Hester’s tutelage to become the consensus National Player of the Year in 2011 and five different Bulldogs combined to secure eight AllAmerica certificates during Hester’s tenure. 2019--20 georgia golf • 21 2019

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS 1981
Terri Moody moved atop the leaderboard midway through the second round of the 1981 AIAW Nationals at the UGA Golf Course and held off a late charge from Miami’s Patti Rizzo to win Georgia’s first-ever individual national title by a female studentathlete in any sport. Moody was among a group of five golfers tied for second following an opening-round 73, but grabbed a one-stroke lead over Rizzo with a 72 on her second loop. Moody, an Athens native who was the first female studentathlete to receive a full athletic scholarship from UGA, maintained that advantage when she TERRI MOODY and Rizzo both carded third1981 AIAW Medalist round 75s. On the final day, Rizzo’s 75 knotted the score and forced a three-hole playoff. Moody completed the trio of holes at 1-under while Rizzo was 1-over.
1984
Cindy Schreyer claimed a dramatic win at the 1984 NCAA Championships, winning a threehole playoff with SMU’s Martha Foyer and Miami’s Michele Bertroitti with a birdie at No. 12. Schreyer had battled Arizona State’s Heather Farr through most of the tournament. Farr carded an opening-round score of 71 at Innisbrook Resort and Golf Club in Tarpon Springs, Fla. Schreyer, who was among seven golfers tied for eighth after the first day, rebounded to break the course record and knot herself with Farr on the leaderboard with a second-round 70. CINDY SCHREYER Farr regained a one-shot lead 1984 NCAA Medalist following the third round. While Schreyer shot 76 in the final round, Foyer and Berteotti carded 75s to force the playoff. Farr slipped to fourth with a 79, two strokes off the playoff-forcing score of 297.
1992
Vicki Goetze turned in one of the most impressive single rounds in the history of women’s collegiate golf en route to capturing top individual honors at the 1992 NCAA Championships on Arizona State University’s Karsten Golf Course. Goetze and Stanford’s Audrey Wooding led following firstround, 3-under 69s; however, Annika Sorenstam of Arizona grabbed a three-shot advantage with a second-round 68. Sorenstam maintained that same margin after both she and Goetze shot 72s on the third day. Goetze then torched the course with a 7-under 65 on the fourth day to top Sorenstam by three. VICKI GOETZE Goetze’s effort still remains as 1992 NCAA Medalist both the low single-round score in NCAA Championships history (though four other golfers have equaled the mark) and the Bulldogs’ low loop all time as well.
2001
The 2001 Bulldogs utilized three days of consistent golf to place themselves in contention and then used a spectacular final-round effort to win UGA’s first-ever national title in women’s golf. Georgia shot 298 and was among three teams tied for fourth after the opening day but climbed to sole possession of third after a second-round 295. The Bulldogs improved to 293 in the third round but still trailed top-ranked Duke by four entering the final 18 holes. Georgia seized contol early in the fourth round, tying the Blue Devils by No. 5 and then surging to a three-shot lead at No. 6. Duke never got closer than two shots thereafter. Georgia clinched the title with steely resolve. After a trio of bogeys at No. 16, UGA played the par-5 No. 17 at 3-under to all but seal the national title. The Bulldogs’ fourth-round score of 290 was six shots better than any other team in the field, as Reilley Rankin and Summer Sirmons carded a pair of 72s, while Laura Henderson and Angela Jerman both shot 73. All four of those Bulldogs finished among the top 18 individuals, with Rankin tying for 10th at 292, Henderson and Jerman both tying for 13th at 294 and Sirmons tied for 18th at 296.
