Florida State sophomore Lottie Woad, who earned a pair of top-three individual finishes in two events, has been named the ACC Women’s Golfer of the Month for September by the conference office. She finished in a tie for first place at the season-opening ANNIKA Intercollegiate and in a tie for third place in the Schooner Fall Classic, as she finished the two events a cumulative total of 15 strokes under par.

In two events and six rounds this fall, Woad has scored each of her six rounds below par, with three of her six rounds coming in the 60’s.

It is the first ACC Golfer of the Month Award for Woad, who earned All-ACC and ACC Freshman of the Year honors in 2023. She was an All-American First-Team selection by the Women’s Golf Coaches Association, and an All-American Second-Team selection by Golfweek in her first season as a Seminoles.

Woad (Farnham, England) earned her third career individual championship as she finished in a tie for first place at the ANNIKA Intercollegiate. She carded scores of 70-68-70 for a three-round total of 8-under-par 208. Woad finished as one of six golfers in the field who earned below par scores in each of the three rounds played in the Tournament.

She carded scores of 68-66-69 for a three-round total of 7-under par of 203 in finishing in a tie for third in the individual standings of the Schooner Fall Classic. Woad totaled three birdies and 17 holes scored at par or better in the final round. Woad was three strokes under par over her final 13 holes of the round.

Woad has now earned five top three individual finishes in the first 13 events of her Florida State career. Her under par scores marked the sixth and seventh times in 13 career events that she had finished under par, and the fifth time she has finished with a score of 208 or better. Woad’s finished with her career-best tournament score of 203.

“My main goal is to help our team earn consistently high finishes,” said Woad. “The award is a tribute to each of the players on our team who have helped us finish well in the first two events of the season. Our goal as a team is to play well and to finish among the leaders at the Tar Heel Invitational next week.”

Florida State closes out its fall season at the Ruth’s Chris Tar Hill Invitational at the Governor’s Club in Chapel Hill (Oct. 9-10). Woad and teammate Charlotte Heath will play for England at the World Amateur Team Championships in Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates (Oct. 25-28).
