Rebel Senior Led the SEC Last Season in Stroke Average
OXFORD, Miss. – Ole Miss senior women's golfer Julia Johnson was selected to the 2020-21 Preseason ANNIKA Award Watch List Thursday, as announced by the Golf Channel.
The ANNIKA Award, presented by Stifel, is awarded annually to the most outstanding women's college golfer, as voted on by players, coaches and media.
The St. Gabriel, Louisiana, native led the SEC with a 70.72 stroke average, the lowest single-season stroke average in program history, while finishing inside the top-15 in every event this season. She ended the season No. 22 in Golfstat's player rankings.
Johnson, a second team All-America selection last season, led the Rebels on the leaderboard in three of the six events played, finishing par-or-better in five. She was the individual medalist at the Battle at the Beach, the third win of her career, good for the second-most in program history.
Her final round 11-under 61 in San Jose del Cabo tied an NCAA record for lowest individual round and went toward a program-record 54-hole score of 203 (73-68-61).
Johnson and Ole Miss will begin their 2020 fall season at the Blessings Collegiate Invitational in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Oct. 5-7.
