Chuasiriporn Inducted into WGCA Players Hall of Fame

LAS VEGAS, Nev. – On Sunday evening at the Planet Hollywood Resort in Las Vegas, Nev., former Duke golfer and four-time All-American Jenny Chuasiriporn was inducted into the Women's Golf Coaches Association (WGCA) Players Hall of Fame.

Chuasiriporn, along with Lizette Salas of Southern California and Kristen White of Ohio State, became the 79th, 80th and 81st members of the WGCA Players Hall of Fame.  

Duke head coach Dan Brooks, associate head coach Jon Whithaus and 2017 Blue Devil graduate Sandy Choi were there to celebrate the induction.  

In four years at Duke, Chuasiriporn helped lead the Blue Devils to four ACC Championships and the 1999 NCAA Title. She earned ACC Rookie of the Year honors in 1996 before going on to win ACC Player of the Year three straight seasons (1997, 1998, 1999). The Timonium, Md., native was also the first player in conference history to win multiple ACC individual championships after claiming back-to-back titles in 1996 and 1997.

A four-time WGCA All-American, including First Team honors her final three seasons, Chuasiriporn
capped off her senior year by winning the Golfstat Cup after leading the nation in stroke average (72.94). The 1998 U.S. Women's Open runner-up currently ranks fourth in school history with seven career wins.

Chuasiriporn joined former Duke standouts Liz Janangelo (2019), Virada Nirapathpongporn (2016) and Amanda Blumenherst (2015) as members of the WGCA Players Hall of Fame.
