About This Guide: The 2005 edition was chosen No. 1 in

the nation among men’s golf media guides by the College

Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The

1994 and 1995 editions were chosen third-best in the

nation by CoSIDA, and the 1993 cover was recognized as

No. 1 in the nation by CoSIDA.


2014-2015 OuTlOOkChris Haack is entering his 19th sea-

son as the head coach of the Georgia men’s golf team. On the eve of that campaign, he answered several ques-tions about his program.

Heading into the season, what are your initial thoughts about your team?

“It would be impossible not to like this team. These are great young men with a tremendous amount of ability and upside. The potential for us to be a champion-ship contender is there. As a group, they show a lot of consistency, which I like. This team has got a lot of depth this year and I know each of them is capable of playing well and going out and winning. We are going into this season with high expectations. ”

What do you expect on and off the course from the senior class of Mookie DeMoss, Nicholas Reach and Sam Straka? And let’s include reshirt junior Sepp Straka in there since he’s also heading into his fourth year in your system.

“It’s imperative that the veterans play like veterans and act like veterans. They have to be the standard bearers for our team. They have to practice hard, play well, do the right things in the classroom and in the community, and simply lead this team. They know what is expected of them. Mookie is our team captain and I know he will be great in that role. And I want Nick, Sam and Sepp to be guys that can be leaned on as well. This is their team and it’s their time to shine.”

You lost some firepower in Joey Garber, Michael Cromie and Keith Mitchell. The aforementioned players have logged several tour-naments for you, led by Reach’s 30. Junior Lee McCoy and sophomore Greyson Sigg were constants in the lineup last season. How much does it help having them back?

“Lee was really steady for us last sea-son. He was a guy we could pencil into the lineup and know exactly what we were going to get. He had five top-5s last year, so it seemed like he always knocking on the door. To get into the lineup as a freshman was big for Greyson. He not

careers.

only got valuable experience in collegiate tournaments, but he had those veterans around him helping him make the tran-sition to collegiate golf. You could see in the spring that he got especially comfort-able. We look at those two as seasoned veterans now and they will have a role in leading the team this year.”

After the guys we’ve talked about, there’s an obvious drop-off in expe-rience. You have two sophomores in Parker Derby and Jaime Lopez Rivarola, each of whom played as individuals in one event. Then you have a redshirt freshman in Branson Davis and true freshmen in Mat-thew Beringer, Zach Healy and Jack Larkin Jr. What are your expecta-tions for this group?

“I expect them to work hard every day and I expect them to compete hard every day. When we have our qualifying rounds, I don’t want them to mail it in because they have veterans in front of them. These guys were recruited to play at Georgia because they have talent and ability. They need to do everything they can to put themselves in a position to get into the lineup.”

What are your thoughts on your schedule?

“What jumps off the page to most people is the fact that we get to play in such places as Pebble Beach, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and St. Simons. What jumps

out to me, though, is the quality fields we’ll see every week. Every time we tee it up, we’re going to have teams from the top 20 around us. The SEC is going to have about half of its teams in the poll and we’re going to be facing them every week, along with the likes of Oklahoma State, Texas and Georgia Tech and many of the others. By the time the champion-ship portion of the schedule rolls around in April and May, we’ll have a pretty good barometer of our team.”

The last three years have been a little difficult, haven’t they? Georgia was fourth in the SECs and 17th in the NCAAs in 2012, ninth and 19th in 2013, and fourth and 11th in 2014. How do you flip those numbers in your favor?

“I wish there was some of magic elixir. It’s not like football where we can change offensive coordinators and start throwing it more. The bottom line is we just have to play better. That’s what it boils down to. We need one or two to step up and play like First-Team All-Americans. Those are guys I called ‘erasers.’ We need one or two guys erasing shots. But we also need our three, four and five guys to contrib-ute a lot more than they have. We’ve seen glimpses of all of this. Take, for example, last year’s Linger Longer where we had all five guys in the top 13 and we won by 10 shots. That’s what I’m looking for. We’ve got to be more consistent.”

Chris Haack was named the Georgia men’s golf coach on July 18,1996 – and he has taken to Bulldogs to a new level of success.

Haack has guided the Bulldogs to two national championships (the only two in school history), seven Southeastern Conference crowns, 53 team tournament titles, and several squad and individu-al records. In 2012, Bubba Watson, an All-American for Haack in 2000, became the first Bulldog to win a professional major as he captured the Masters title. And in 2014, Watson won the Masters again, made the U.S. Ryder Cup Team and was one of an unprecedented six Bulldogs (joining Brian Harman, Harris English, Russell Henley, Chris Kirk and Brendon Todd) to win a PGA Tour event. At season’s end, eight Bulldogs – the aforementioned group plus Kevin Kisner and Erik Compton – qualified for the FedExCup Playoffs.

In 2012, Haack added the position of Director of Golf. He serves as the liaison between the Athletic Association and the UGA Golf Course, oversees the Boyd Center and the adjacent practice facilities, and is available as counsel to women’s coach Josh Brewer.

Haack was inducted into the GCAA Hall of Fame in December of 2012, join-ing Georgia predecessors Howell Hollis and Dick Copas.

Under Haack, the Bulldogs have had eight top-10 and 14 top-20 efforts at the NCAAs, including the 1999 and 2005 national titles and runner-up efforts in 2007 and 2011. Haack has developed 54 All-Americans during his tenure, including at least one in 16 of the past 17 seasons.

Georgia’s win in the 2013 Dick’s Sport-ing Goods Collegiate Challenge Cup was the 50th in Haack’s career. The three that followed pushed his total to 53 and

National and SEC Player of the Year hon-ors. He also guided the Bulldogs to three wins, including the SEC Championship. In the Williams Intercollegiate, Haack’s squad made up a 15-shot deficit after two rounds to win by one stroke – the largest rally in his tenure.

The 2008-09 Bulldogs won five tournaments, including the SEC title. His Bulldogs finished No. 1 in the final Golfstat poll and came in third at the NCAAs. The 2007-08 Bulldogs finished the year with the No. 1 ranking. Haack’s team won three times and came in eighth at the NCAAs. In 2006-07, Georgia won five out of seven tournaments. Despite placing second at the NCAAs, Georgia held the final No. 1 ranking. In 2005-06, Haack led the Bulldogs to a school-re-cord-tying six tournament wins and he was chosen as the SEC Coach of the Year. He also was selected by the Golf Coaches Association of America as the 2006 head coach for the United States Palmer Cup Team.

The Bulldogs won three tournaments in 2004-05 – including the most memora-ble one in the spring as Georgia capped the season with a wire-to-wire win at the NCAAs. Haack was chosen as the National Coach of the Year.

Haack’s 2003-04 Bulldogs won the SEC title. In 2002-03, his Bulldogs finished 16th at the NCAAs and third at the SECs, but cracked the win column at the Tennessee Tournament of Champions.

extended his own school record for the most among golf coaches.

Haack produced three All-Americans in Joey Garber (who spent much of the season as the country’s No. 1 player), Mi-chael Cromie and Lee McCoy. They also earned All-SEC honors and Greyson Sigg was picked for the league’s All-Freshman Team.

Haack’s charges picked up two titles in 2012-13, winning the Brickyard Col-legiate Championship and the Bulldog Battle at Mountain Lake. T.J. Mitchell and Nicholas Reach earned All-SEC honors and McCoy was named to the SEC’s All-Freshman Team.

In 2011-12, Haack took a quintet of one junior, three sophomores and one freshman to the NCAAs. Keith Mitchell earned All-America honors.

Haack piloted the 2010-11 Bulldogs to the final match of the NCAAs. English, Henley and Swafford capped their ca-reers with All-America recognition.

In 2009-10, Haack coached Henley to

Jim Douglas, who helped the Georgia men’s golf team win the program’s two national championships, rejoined the Bulldogs’ staff in January of 2011 and was promoted to Associate Head Coach in July of 2012.

Douglas was Georgia’s assistant coach from 1997 through 2005, during which

time the Bulldogs celebrated some of their greatest success. With Douglas as Coach Chris Haack’s lieutenant, Georgia won NCAA titles in 1999 and 2005, along with four Southeastern Conference championships (1998, 2000, 2001 and 2004). Georgia produced 26 All-Americans, 30 All-SEC picks, two SEC

Players of the Year, two SEC Freshmen of the Year, 33 SEC Academic Honor Roll selections, six All-American Scholars and an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipient in that span.

Douglas served parts of the 2009-10 season as a volunteer coach, including during Georgia’s run to the SEC title.

In 2011, with Douglas assisting Haack in the spring, the Bulldogs advanced to the final match of the NCAA Champi-onship. Douglas helped seniors Harris English, Russell Henley and Hudson Swaf-ford cap their careers with All-America honors.

Douglas and Haack have guided the Bulldogs back to the NCAAs each of the last three years.

“As Associate Head Coach, Jim has more responsibilities with the day-to-day operations of our team,” Haack said. “He knows everything there is to know about our program and the way things need to be done. He’s been my right-hand man for many years, and we are lucky to have him in Athens. He brings so many qualities to the table. His contribu-tions to our program – including areas like academics, recruiting, tournaments and practices – have been critical to our success.”

Douglas graduated from Georgia with a double major in political science and history.

Though his 2001-02 Bulldogs did not win a tournament, Haack was recognized as one of the nation’s top coaches as he was chosen as coach for Team USA for the Palmer Cup.

Haack’s 2000-01 Bulldogs won six events, including a school-record four straight, and finished the season ranked No. 1 in the nation. Haack’s 1999-2000 Bulldogs won three tournaments and he earned SEC Coach of the Year honors.

Haack’s breakthrough season with the Bulldogs came in 1998-99. No Georgia team had ever ascended to the No. 1 position in the polls, but Haack’s team did so early in the spring campaign. The Bulldogs later validated their ranking by winning the program’s first national championship. Haack was named Nation-

al Coach of the Year.In 1997-98, Haack led Georgia to

four wins, including its first SEC crown since 1988. Haack’s first Georgia squad in 1996-97 showed glimpses of what lay ahead as the youthful Bulldogs finished fourth or better in seven of 11 events and advanced to the NCAA Regional.

Before being named Georgia’s coach, Haack was a driving force for the American Junior Golf Association. He joined the AJGA in 1981 as a tourna-ment director before becoming director of operations in 1984 and director of development in 1985. He also served a seven-year stint as captain of the Canon Cup West Team, squads that included Ti-ger Woods and Chris Riley. In an initiative begun as foundation director from 1988-

90, he also organized and established fund-raising programs to build surplus moneys for the AJGA’s perpetuity, bringing in more than $750,000 for the foundation and other junior programs. Haack served as assistant executive director from 1990-96, helping manage a staff of 22 and an annual budget of $2.5 million. Additionally, he helped oversee the running of 38 events and 19 qualifiers nationwide.

The recipient of the AJGA Sports-manship Award, Haack graduated from Newnan High School in 1978. He at-tended West Georgia College, where he played on the golf team, and he received his degree from Mellen.

Haack and his wife, Tori, have a son, Charlie, and a daughter, Katie.

geOrgia’s reCOrd bOOk


Following the 1999 NCAA Championship in Chaska, Minn.:• The announcer called out the wrong school as the winner

of the national title.• A torrential rainstorm hit the suburb of Minneapolis.• And a courtesy van provided to the actual champion was vandalized,

presumably by a not-so-gracious loser.But the players and coaches from the Georgia men’s golf team couldn’t

have cared less. All of that was a small price to pay for the program’s first national championship.

“It’s an indescribable feeling,” said Coach Chris Haack, whose Georgia (not Washington, as the announcer said) squad secured the trophy. “All the hard work, all the sacrifice, all the time spent hitting balls, it’s worth it. I always wondered what it felt like when teams like UNLV and Oklahoma State won the national title. Now I know — and it’s a great feeling. I am so proud of our guys. A four-day tournament is a real grind, but they stayed focused and played good, steady golf all week. They really played like champions.”

Especially on the last day. The Bulldogs entered the final round trailing Oklahoma State by five shots at Hazeltine National Golf Club. The players and coaches to a man said making up five shots was not a difficult propo-sition — and they were right. Georgia actually pulled ahead after just two holes and extended its lead throughout the rest of the front nine before holding on down the stretch to win by three.

“We knew that we had to be patient on this course because so much can change so quickly,” Michael Morrison said. “You can’t take anything for granted. You have to play every shot as hard as the last one. You’ve got to play every hole to the best of your ability. I think we all did that.”

Particularly Ryuji Imada. He paced the comeback effort with a 5-under par 67, one off the course record for Hazeltine. Imada finished at 1-under 287, second behind Northwestern’s Luke Donald (284).

“It was one of the best 18 holes of golf I’ve ever seen,” said Haack, who sported a newly shaved bald head after the NCAAs as he made good on a pre-tournament promise. “Ryuji was spectacular. He certainly picked the

right time to turn it on. That could go down in history as one of the best final rounds at the NCAAs. The little man just put us on his back and took us to the title.”

Imada had a shot at winning the medalist title down the stretch, but he said he focused more on the team crown.

“The last thing I wanted to do was mess up and cost us the national cham-pionship,” Imada said. “I had a couple of chances to go at the flag, but I didn’t because it meant more for us as a team to win the national championship. I wanted to be aggressive, but I didn’t want to let the team down.”

Imada finished the year as the nation’s third-ranked golfer, trailing only Donald and Georgia Tech’s Bryce Molder.

“It’s the best feeling I’ve ever had. It’s unbelievable,” Nick Cassini said. “No matter what any of us do the rest of our lives in golf, we’ll be the 1999 national champions. It’s like a dream come true.”

Front row: Nick Cassini, Chris Haack and Ryuji Imada. Back row: Mark Northey, Michael Morrison, Jeremy Parrott and Jim Douglas.

With Coach Chris Haack rubbing the lucky coin in his pocket, Georgia cashed in at the NCAA Championship.

The Bulldogs went wire-to-wire as the tournament leader at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Md., finishing with an 11-shot advantage over instate rival Georgia Tech. Georgia fired an even-par 280 in the final round to wind up at 15-over 1,135.

“I could not be prouder of this group of guys,” said Haack, who carried a coin given to him by his daughter, Katie, that had the inscription, “Dad, I Love You.”

“I knew that we had the talent, the confidence and the demeanor to challenge for the championship this year,” Haack continued. “It’s been a good year, but we only had two wins coming in. I knew if they all put it together, it would be special. They just happened to do it this week when it meant the most.”

“It’s awesome to go out like this,” said David Denham, the only senior in the Bulldogs’ lineup. “You live for moments like this. Every team strives to win the national championship, but not too many of them do it.”

“This is what you play for,” Richard Scott said. “This is what this team was put together for. It’s great to go out and win other tournaments, but this is the one we all play for.”

“This is the biggest one,” team captain Kevin Kisner said. “This is what you set your goals for. This is why we all came to Georgia. We’ve got too solid of a team not to win tournaments. When we all play well, it’s hard for us to lose.”

The Bulldogs entered the final round with a 9-shot lead over the Yellow Jackets, and they knew it would hard to give that kind of lead away. Still, when Brendon Todd’s putt rolled in on No. 18, the players and coaches were

all at once relieved and ecstatic.“This is the ultimate feeling,” Chris Kirk said. “It’s awesome. It’s a great

group of guys, and I have loved playing with them the last two years.”“It feels great,” Todd said. “It’s probably the biggest accomplishment any of

us have in golf. It’s just incredible to win the national championship.”Todd wound up as the Bulldogs’ top individual at 3-over 283, followed by

Kirk and Kisner at 5-over 285, Scott at 6-over 286 and Denham at 8-over 288. Todd finished seventh, and Kirk and Kisner were in the group that tied for 13th. Scott had a top-20 finish as he wound up 16th.

Front row: Kevin Kisner and David Denham. Back row: Jim Douglas, Brendon Todd, Richard Scott, Chris Kirk and Chris Haack.

The Georgia men’s golf program has produced 28 Southeastern Conference championships. That is more than any other league school and the most of any athletic team at Georgia. As the accompanying chart shows, the Bulldogs have had success in several decades, including the 1950s and the 1960s when they won six in each. Under Coach Chris Haack, the Bulldogs have won seven titles, including six in the 2000s.

In the spring of 1924, a handful of Georgia students formed what was the university’s first-ever golf team. In those days, the team did not have coaches; rather, one of the players served as captain and made the decisions that guided the squad. Some of the first captains for the Bulldogs were Harris Jones, John Grant, Billy Oliver and Hugh Nunnally.The Bulldogs’ first coach came on board

in 1930 as Murray Soule took the posi-tion. He was succeeded by J.M. McFadden (1933-35), who passed the torch to R.L. Keener (1935-42). Keener led the Bulldogs to their first-ever SEC championship in 1941. Because of World War II, the Bulldogs disbanded for the next few years.Howell Hollis was named coach in 1946

and began to lay the foundation for the program. Serving from 1946 through 1970,

Hollis took 13 of his 25 teams to the NCAA Championships, including eight top-10 finishes. Hollis’ Bulldogs claimed 13 Southeastern Conference titles and he had 10 individual confer-ence champions. One of those, George Hamer in 1946, went on to win the national championship. During Hollis’ tenure, the Bull-dogs also played primarily dual

matches, posting a mark of 268-57-8.Hamer, who was nicknamed “The Georgia

Pine” because of his height, is still the only Bulldog to win the NCAA title (then known as the National Intercollegiates). He also won the Southeastern Amateur three times and the Georgia State Open and the Southern Amateur titles once apiece.Hollis was able to attract some of the

game’s best players to Athens during his tenure, including David Boyd, Jimmy Gabri-elsen, Vinny Giles and Danny Yates.Hollis stepped down following the 1970

season and he was succeeded by Dick Copas, a member of the UGA staff as an academic counselor and dorm director. Copas maintained the level of success that Hollis had begun as he guided the Bulldogs from 1971-96 to 17 NCAAs, including 10 top-10s, and seven SEC titles. Sixty-one of his protégés won All-SEC honors, while 31 were tabbed as All-Americans. Copas himself was named National Coach of the Year in 1978 and the SEC Coach of the Year seven times.Copas coached some of the most deco-

rated players in Georgia history, including Peter Persons, Chip Beck, Griff Moody, Matt Peterson, Paul Claxton and Franklin Langham. Chris Haack stepped from the ranks of

the American Junior Golf Association to assume the reins of the Georgia program after Copas. In just his third year on the job, Haack guided the 1999 Bulldogs to the program’s first national championship and he was named the National Coach of the Year. He then guided the 2005 Bulldogs to the national championship and again was chosen as the National Coach of the Year.To date, Haack also has guided the

Bulldogs to seven more SEC titles – giving Georgia a league-high 28 crowns. Under Haack, Georgia has set school marks for lowest team total in a tournament and a round as well as lowest mark by an individual. Fifty-four of his players have been tabbed as All-Americans, while 58 of Haack’s players have been chosen All-SEC, including 1998 Player of the Year Jeremy Parrott, 2001 Player of the Year Nick Cas-sini, 2006 Player of the Year Kirk and 2010 Player of the Year Russell Henley.
