Meet the golfers on the 2025 Haskins Award preseason watch list

College golf is back, which means it’s time to look at Player of the Year candidates.

The Haskins Award presented by Stifel honors the player of the year in men’s college golf, as selected by college golfers, coaches and members of the college golf media.

On Wednesday, the Haskins Foundation announced its 2025 Haskins Award preseason watch list. The players are listed alphabetically. Players on the Haskins Award Watch List were selected by a panel of Golfweek and Golf Channel writers.

Last year, Auburn’s Jackson Koivun took home the honor. This season, Koivun will look to go back-to-back, but plenty of others will vie for the Heisman Trophy of college golf, including the world’s top-ranked amateur and the reigning U.S. Amateur champion.

Six schools have two players each on the initial watch list: Arizona State, Auburn, Illinois, Texas, Vanderbilt and Virginia.

Here’s a look at the 25 golfers on the preseason watch list.
