Grzebien Inducted into WGCA Players Hall of Fame

LAS VEGAS – On Monday evening in Las Vegas, former Duke women’s golf National Champion, Anna Grzebien, was inducted into the Women’s Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) Players Hall of Fame at Planet Hollywood Resort.

Grzebien was inducted along with UCLA’s Charlotte Mayorkas and South Carolina’s Kristy McPherson to become the 85th, 86th and 87th members of the WGCA Players Hall of Fame.

Over her impressive four-year career with the Blue Devils, Grzebien helped lead Duke to three NCAA Championship titles, three NCAA Regional Championship wins and four ACC Championships. She was both the 2005 NCAA Individual Champion and East Region Champion, and was named the winner of the 2005 Honda Award as the National Player of the Year.

The Narragansett, Rhode Island native is a four-time WGCA All-American, including two stints on the First Team. In the Duke record books, she currently ranks 12th in career top-10 finishes (20), ninth in career even or under par rounds (45), seventh in most counted scores (13), and fourth in career birdies (351). Grzebien went on to spend five years on the LPGA Tour.

Grzebien is one of only six golfers nationally to lead her team to three NCAA Championships, having done so in 2005, 2006 and 2007.  

A 2007 Duke graduate, Grzebien became the sixth Blue Devil to be inducted into the WGCA Players Hall of Fame, joining Candy Hannemann (2022), Jenny Chuasiriporn (2021), Liz Janangelo (2019), Virada Nirapathpongporn (2016) and Amanda Blumenherst (2015).  Duke head coach Dan Brooks was also inducted into the WGCA Hall of Fame in 2001.
