Ducks, Yeo Sweep Abilene Christian Intercollegiate

GRANBURY, Texas – The Oregon women's golf team wrapped up its fall season in dominant fashion on Wednesday, running away with the team title at the Abilene Christian Intercollegiate while freshman Celina Yeo claimed the individual championship with a stellar final round at Halbert National.

No. 6 Oregon posted a 9-under 279 in the final round to finish the week with a 28-under 836, tied for the second-lowest 54-hole performance in program history. The Ducks doubled up No. 14 Tennessee and No. 18 Arizona State, which tied for second place at 14-under par.

The win was the first of 2026-27 for the Ducks, the 13th since head coach Derek Radley took over ahead of the 2018-19 season and the 43rd in program history.

"I couldn't be more proud of our team this week," Radley said. "This was an unbelievable tournament put on by Abilene Christian and a phenomenal golf course by David Halbert and his team. Our ladies managed the course beautifully and played for each other all week long. Just an awesome way to close out our fall season."

Junior Tong An was locked in battle with Arizona's Kinsley Ni for the individual title, but it was Yeo who came from behind to snatch her first collegiate win. Yeo made eight birdies for a 7-under 65, the best individual round of the day, including a birdie on No. 18 that pulled her into a tie with Ni before the Arizona sophomore made a bogey on her final hole to leave Yeo alone at the top of the leaderboard at 10-under par.

The top 10 was loaded with Ducks as An placed third at 8-under par, two strokes back of Yeo and one behind Ni, while sophomore Shyla Singh (-6) tied for fourth and freshman Prim Prachnakorn (-4) tied for seventh.

"Incredible day for Celina to get her first career win," Radley said. "She has been so solid for us all fall as a true freshman and she had everything working out there today. Awesome to see her pull out the victory but also really cool to have four of our Ducks in the top 10. It was a really good team effort all three days."

Yeo's victory was the 48th individual win in program history and the first by a Duck this season. She became the 15th individual medalist since Radley took over as head coach.

How it Happened: Oregon led by 10 strokes entering the final round, and no team was able to close that gap as the Ducks tied for the low round of the day. The Ducks' four counting scorers combined to card 16 birdies against just seven bogeys throughout the final 18 holes, and UO led the field for the week with 63 birdies while tallying the fewest bogeys with just 36.

Yeo was eight strokes back of Ni and seven behind An going into Wednesday, but the freshman quickly closed that gap. She bogeyed her second hold of the day but was flawless the rest of the way, including three straight birdies that brought her to 3 under at the turn.

Yeo added another birdie at No. 11 before catching fire on the finishing stretch, making three birdies in her final four holes to pass both Ni and An.

Yeo's victory comes on the heels of a runner-up finish at the Windy City Classic. Over her last two tournaments, Yeo has shot 14-under par with five rounds in the red.

An closed the week with a 2-over 74, with a birdie on her first hold of the day proving to be her only one of the round. She still finished third overall at 8 under, just two back of Yeo and one behind Ni, to close a tremendous fall season that saw her place in the individual top 10 in all four tournaments with three top-five showings.

Singh bogeyed her opening hole but, like Yeo, had a clean card the rest of the way. She was 1 over at the turn before making three birdies on the back nine, including at No. 18 to post a 2-under 70 and tie for fourth overall at 6 under for her second top-10 finish of the fall.

Prachnakorn enjoyed the best tournament of her young career, matching Singh with a 2-under 70 for the second day in a row. She was even at the turn before shooting 2-under without a bogey on the back nine, tying for seventh at 4 under.
