• Last year, Duke won its 22nd overall ACC women’s golf title and first in the new match play format, with a 5-0 victory over Florida State. The Blue Devils’ first three golfers jumped out to an early lead on the front nine and never let up to claim the championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, North Carolina. Duke’s Gina Kim shot three rounds in the 60s, including a final round 69 to capture individual medalist honors. Kim’s three-day 10-under par total of 206 is the second-lowest in ACC Championship history and tied the Duke ACC Tourna­ment 54-hole record.
