Clanton Named to Haskins Award Postseason Watch List
Florida State junior Luke Clanton was one of 15 players named to the 2024-25 Fred Haskins Postseason watch list on Wednesday.
Beginning in 1971, the Fred Haskins Award presented by Stifel is annually given to the top male U.S. collegiate golfer as voted on by only college golfers, coaches, and members of the golf media. Past winners of the Haskins Award presented by Stifel have captured 33 major championships and more than 400 professional tournaments around the world. Named in honor of Fred Haskins, the award is managed by the Haskins Foundation to acknowledge the top male golfer at the end of the season and to match the ANNIKA Award presented by Stifel, which acknowledges the top female Division I collegiate golfer.
Clanton has led the Seminoles to three victories in 2024-25, while topping the leaderboard in each win. FSU finished third in stroke play at the ACC Championship in Bowling Green, Kentucky and made an appearance in the semifinal.
The Hialeah, Fla., native is averaging 69.36 strokes per round and has finished in the top 15 in all nine of his starts as a junior. He currently holds the top two single season averages in program history after setting the record in 2023-24 at 69.33.
Clanton holds nine wins in match play in his career, including three from this season. The top-ranked amateur defeated No.2 Jackson Koivun of Auburn (3&2) and Jack Vojtko of Ohio State (5&4) at the East Lake Cup, and Ziqin Zhou of California (2Up) in the quarterfinal of the ACC Championship.
Clanton tied his single-round low of 64 to open the Seminole Intercollegiate at the Glen Arven Country Club.
Clanton earned his PGA TOUR Card after securing his 20th accelerated point through PGA TOUR University at the Cognizant Classic by making the cut.
In 13 career PGA TOUR starts, Clanton became the first amateur to record top 10 finishes in back-to-back starts since Bill Joe Patton in 1957 after placing second at the 2024 John Deere Classic and 10th at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
At age 20, he became the youngest player to finish second on TOUR since Jordan Spieth at the 2014 Masters Tournament.
Finalists for the award will be announced May 16, and voting will open for the 10 players included on the list. Players, coaches, media, sports information directors and past winners will be eligible to vote through May 26.
