Yale Golf Team is the sports extension of Yale University. It was founded in 1896.[11] It is notable for winning more team National Championships and more individual National Championships than any other university golf program in the United States.[12] The team is headquartered at the Yale Golf Course. The team competes as a member of the Ivy League.

History

The Beginning and First Matches (1896–1897)

In 1895 retired businessman Justus S. Hotchkiss and Yale professor Theodore S. Woolsey were given the task of creating a golf movement in New Haven, CT by the New Haven Lawn Club. Coincidentally, Scotsman and golf lover Robert D. Pryde was employed by Hotchkiss at this time as a cabinetmaker. Upon learning of Pryde's love for the rapidly growing game as well as his upbringing as an apprentice at the Scotscraig Golf Club in Scotland, Hotchkiss and Woolsey took Pryde around New Haven to find a suitable location for this new golf venture. Upon finding a location, Pryde created plans and a course was open for play when the university convened that fall. The New Haven Golf Club formed soon after with a membership consisting of mainly Yale undergraduates and professors. The undergraduates then formed a separate Yale Golf Club in 1896 from which a team was selected to play against Brooklawn Country Club members that October. A month later, the team played their first intercollegiate match against Columbia University. Then in 1897 sporting red coats Pryde had imported, the Yale team won the first "National" Intercollegiate Championship run by the USGA at the Ardsley Club in Ardsley-on-Hudson, New York. Here they beat out Harvard, Princeton, University of Pennsylvania, and Columbia to claim the first of an eventual 21 National Championships. [13]

The Pre Yale Golf Course Era (1897–1925)

Over the next 28 years, the Yale Men's Golf Team won an unmatched 14 National Championships with Robert Pryde serving as the unofficial team coach.[14] These teams’ success was in large part due to the steady flow of talent that came through the program. This era saw 11 different golfers capture 12 individual National Championships.[15] The notable of these was Jess Sweetser. During his time at Yale, Sweetser won the 1920 Individual National Championship, finished runner up at the National Championship in 1921, finished 11th at the 1921 U.S. Open as a teenager, won the 1922 U.S. Amateur, and then was named to the inaugural 1922 Walker Cup team.[16] Despite this success, things were not always easy for the Yale Golf Team. In 1913 the rented land where the team had been practicing and playing began to be sold off as housing lots. To clear up this issue, Yale and others bought land in Orange, Connecticut and created the Race Brook Country Club. Again Pryde was tasked with designing the courses, yet even with 36 holes the club quickly became overcrowded. It soon was clear that Yale Golf needed a new home.[17]

Yale Golf Through World War II (1926–1945)

After years of hard work from Charles Blair Macdonald, Seth Raynor, and Charles Banks, the Yale Golf Course was opened in April 1926.[18] Just before the opening of the course, it was announced that Bernard "Ben" Thomson was to serve as the course's first professional and the coach of the Yale Golf Team. By 1927, the course already had 435 undergraduate members, with the top 12 finishers from the University Championship tournament being picked to play on the team. This system proved effective as the team continued their run of national championships by winning in 1926, 1931, 1932, 1933, and 1936, with Tom Aycock winning an individual National Championship in 1929. During this run, the team also joined the Eastern Intercollegiate Golf Association (EIGA) in 1931. The EIGA consisted of Brown, Dartmouth, Georgetown, Harvard, Holy Cross, Penn, Princeton, and Williams and allowed Yale to compete for the EIGA's Maxwell Cup even if they didn't qualify for the national championship that year. They won this Cup every year from 1931 to 1938. Despite this success, Coach Thomson was fired in 1942 as the Yale Athletic Association began a retrenchment plan due to the outbreak of World War II. Even without Thomson's leadership, the team won the Maxwell Cup again in 1942 and what would be their last National Championship in 1943.[19]

Post-War Years (1945–1974)

Following Ben Thomson's run as coach of the Yale Golf Team, William H. "Widdy" Neal took over the program in 1942. He saw immediate success as the team won the 1943 National Championship, while also serving as the Yale tennis coach and the head of the intramural program at Yale.[20] Not long after this win, Joe Sullivan became the golf coach in 1946. Sullivan originally came to Yale as an assistant to Ben Thomson in 1939. He would eventually become the head professional at the Yale Golf Course in addition to leading the Yale Men's Golf Team to five more Eastern Intercollegiate Golf Championships in his nine-year tenure as coach. [21] Upon Sullivan's departure, Al Wilson volunteered to be the new coach. Wilson quickly became a certified PGA professional over the next two years by apprenticing Sam Snead over the phone. This apprenticeship paid dividends as during his time as coach, Wilson's teams had a combined record of 136 wins to only 14 losses. Wilson’s teams also won seven Eastern Intercollegiate Championships and had three players - Ted Weiss, Dan Hogan, and Ned Snyder - named as All-Americans.[22]

David Paterson and the Modern Era (1975–present)

When David Paterson arrived at Yale as the newly hired Director of Golf, he maintained one condition; he would be the coach of the Yale Men's Golf team. This condition became a reality in 1975 when Paterson was allowed to take over the program. From the very start, Paterson possessed a deep desire to add another national championship to the school's already record 21 victories. He did this by strengthening the team's tournament schedule to play the nation's top teams while also creating the Yale Fall Intercollegiate Tournament (now called the Macdonald Cup) and the Yale Spring Opener to draw these top programs to New Haven. Additionally, he hosted the 1991 and 1995 NCAA Regional Championships as well as several New England NCAA Division I Championships to bring even more attention to the Yale Golf Course and program. Paterson also played a pivotal role in the creation of the Yale Women's Golf Team as he coached the team to their first win at the Mount Holyoke Invitational before handing the program over to Darci Wilson, the team's first full-time coach. Year after year, Paterson maintained his commitment to being the best ambassador of Yale golf as he could. Whether this came in the form of putting together the Yale Golf Classic, a tournament for stars of the Senior PGA to raise money for Yale athletics or serving as the president of the Ivy League Coaches Association, Paterson pushed Yale Golf onwards and upwards. When the "Scottish Bulldog", as he had been fondly nicknamed, retired in 2008 he was one of the longest-serving coaches in the history of NCAA golf. In his 33 year career, Paterson's teams won eight Ivy League titles and five New England Division 1 Championships. He had ten teams qualify for NCAA Regionals with two of those teams making it to NCAA National Championships. Paterson handed the program over to a former player of his, Colin Sheehan (Yale '97), who had served as the assistant coach for the men's and women's teams in 2007.[23] Sheehan has continued the winning legacy passed on by Paterson with his teams combining for 29 wins in his career so far, including two Ivy League Championships (2011 and 2018). To accompany these wins, Sheehan has also been named the D-1 Northeast Coach of the Year four times (2011, 2013, 2014, and 2019) while being honored as Ivy League Coach of the Year in 2019.[24]

Notable Players

Robert Gardner

Robert Gardner (Class of 1912) was the first of many dual-sport athletes to find success for Yale on the golf course. From 1910 to 1912, Gardner helped the Yale Men's Golf Team continue their streak of eight straight national championships while captaining the team in 1912. Gardner also captured the 1909 and 1915 US Amateurs while playing on the inaugural 1922 Walker Cup team and serving as a playing captain on the 1923, 1924, and 1926 teams. Aside from golf, he also served as the captain of the Yale Track Team and at one point set the world record of 13 feet 1 inch in pole vaulting while winning the intercollegiate pole vault championship.[41]

Jess Sweetser

Jess Sweetser (Class of 1923) is another dual-sport athlete that pushed Yale Golf forward. For Yale, Sweetser won the 1920 National Intercollegiate Championship and finished runner-up at the 1921 National Intercollegiate Championship all while running track for the Bulldogs.[42] As an amateur golfer, Sweetser won the 1922 US Amateur, became the first American-born winner of the British Amateur in 1926, won the 1922 and 1925 Metropolitan Amateur, and was a six-time Walker Cup member (1922, 1923, 1924, 1926, 1928, 1932).[43]

Dexter Cummings

Dexter Cummings (Class of 1925) is Yale's only two-time Individual National Champion. He won the 1924 and 1925 National Individual Championships while leading the Bulldogs to team National Championships in those years as well. Shortly after graduating, Cummings continued his stellar golf by medalling at the Western Amateur by seven shots.[44]

Edward L. Meister

Edward L. Meister (Class of 1940) was known as a golfing prodigy early on in his life. This proved true as he would be undefeated as a freshman at Yale. He would also become the first-ever freshman to be crowned the winner of the annual University Championship, beating Frederic Borsodi, the tournament's current namesake, in the finals. While Yale would not win any National Championships during his time on the team, Meister would be the number one player throughout his time on the team. Upon graduation, Meister focused his attention onamateur golf. In 35 years, he would qualify for 25 US Amateurs, play in three Masters Tournaments and reach the semifinals of the Canadian and French championships as well as the US Senior Amateur. However, Meister's most notable accomplishment came in his 1954 semifinal match in the US Amateur where he faced off against Arnold Palmer. While Meister would end up falling to Palmer after 39 holes, the match was considered an all-time great.[45]

Peter Teravainen

Peter Teravainen (Class of 1978) became Yale's first and only two-time Ivy League Individual Champion by winning the title in 1977 and 1978.[46] Additionally, he was named to All-American Teams three times in 1977, 1978, and 1979, a feat that has not been matched since by a Yale golfer. After graduating and with the encouragement of Coach David Paterson, Teravainen embarked on a professional career.[47] While he had a short and unsuccessful stint on the PGA Tour, Teravainen earned a European Tour Card in 1981. He continued to play in Europe for the next decade with some successes in the form of top-ten finishes. He played in his first major championship in the 1984 Open Championship at the Old Course at St Andrews but ran into injury problems nine years later in 1993. On the verge of quitting the game in 1995, Tervainen finally broke through and won on the European tour at the Chemapol Trophy Czech Open and his career saw a resurgence. When his playing days came to a close Teravainen had won seven times, including three national championships, played in multiple major championships, and had achieved his best ranking of 97 in the World Golf Rankings.[48][circular reference]

Bob Heintz Jr.

Bob Heintz Jr. (Class of 1992) originally came to Yale to play basketball but transitioned to a full-time golfer during his second year. This decision proved wise as Heintz would go on to win the next three Ivy League Individual Championships, including a 13-shot victory during his senior year at Bethpage Black. He also was an Academic All-American his senior year by maintaining a 3.2 GPA. After graduation, Heintz bounced around between mini-tours until he qualified for the PGA Tour in 2000. Over the next decade, he would go back and forth between the PGA Tour and Nike Tour (now Korn Ferry Tour) before eventually transitioning to the world of college golf coaching. He now serves as the assistant men's golf coach at Duke University[49]

James Nicholas

James Nicholas (Class of 2019) came to Yale as a dual-sport athlete, playing both golf and football for the Bulldogs. After dropping football following his freshman season, Nicholas began to succeed for the Bulldogs. He ended his career as a two-time Ivy League Player of the Year (2018, 2019) including an individual win at the 2019 Ivy League Championship, a three-time winner of the Borsodi Student Championship (2017, 2018, 2019), a two-time Division I PING All-Region Team for the Northeast member (2018, 2019), as well as several other collegiate victories.[50] Upon graduation, James earned Korn Ferry Tour status at Q-School and made his PGA Tour debut at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit, Michigan in 2020.

Heather Daly-Donofrio

Heather Daly-Donofrio (Class of 1991) also arrived at Yale as a dual-athlete, competing for the Bulldogs both as a swimmer and as a golfer. After her second year, Daly-Donofrio decided to give up swimming and focus on her golf game. This paid dividends as she would go on to win the Connecticut Women's Amateur Championship in both 1992 and 1993. For the next several years she worked miscellaneous jobs while playing on the mini-tours. In 1997, she accepted the job as the head women's golf coach at Yale but then qualified for the LPGA Tour later that year. In 2000, Daly-Donofrio resigned as coach but would go on to become the first Yale graduate to win a professional tournament on a major U.S. tour. when she won the 2001 First Union Betsy King Classic on the LPGA Tour. She would win again at the 2004 Mitchell Company Tournament of Champions and continue playing on the LPGA Tour until 2009.[51]

Seo Hee Moon

Seo Hee Moon (Class 2014) came to Yale in the fall of 2010 and saw immediate success. During her freshman season, Moon won six of the teams' ten tournaments and finished in the top three in three others. Due to this impressive play, Moon was awarded the Ivy League Freshman of the Year and Ivy League Player of the Year in 2011. She remained a consistent finisher for Yale throughout the next three years, securing many top-tens, Second-Team All-Ivy in 2012 and First-Team All-Ivy in 2013.[52]

F.A. Borsodi Student Championship

Frederic A. Borsodi

Fred Borsodi (Class of 1939) arrived on the Yale campus in 1935 as a golfer far away from his Texas home. While on the golf team, he finished runner up in the 1937 Student University Championship as well as tying the course record of 69 at the Old Course at St Andrews that same year while playing in the West of Scotland Golfer’s Alliance Open Championship. Along with golf, Borsodi had a strong passion for aviation. He learned to fly as a member of the Yale Aero Club which maintained planes and put on competitive intercollegiate air shows. He grew to love piloting so much that following his graduation in 1939 he joined the Navy as a pilot, although he would resign from this role only one year later in 1940. Then everything changed on December 7, 1941, when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. This lit a fire in Borsodi, leading him to join the AirForce. Here he would end up flying 130 combat missions in Europe and North Africa, even surviving being shot down in 1943. Borsodi would work his way up to the title of Air Force Chief Test Pilot. As part of this title, Borsodi was asked to test out a new jet fighter plane coined "Shooting Stars in January of 1945. While the first test run on January 27 was a success, a day later the plane piloted by Major Borsodi caught fire and crashed. Borsodi did not survive and was buried with full military honors at the American Military Cemetery in Cambridge, England. During his Air Force tenure, Borsodi had been awarded Distinguished Flying Cross with one Oak Leaf Cluster and The Air Medal with fifteen Oak Leaf Clusters.[53]

History of the F.A. Borsodi Student Championship

When the undergraduates at Yale created the Yale Golf Club in 1896 one of their first tasks was to create a tournament in which they could determine the strongest players amongst their ranks. This tournament became an annual tradition until it was eventually suspended in 1950. For 36 years the tournament was not contested until 1986 when Coach David Paterson sought to bring back this once prestigious tournament. Along with the help of the Yale Class of 1937, Paterson resumed the playing of the tournament under the new name of the F.A. Borsodi Student Championship after the heroic World War II pilot and former Yale Golf Team member Frederic A. Borsodi. That year Willis Arndt (Class of 1990) won the men’s division while Marjorie Funk, a graduate student, won the women’s division. To this day, the Borsodi Student Championship remains an annual tradition each fall at the Yale Golf Course.[54]
