2005 – Men's Golf – Former men's golf coach, the late Rod Myers, was named the National Coach of the Year by Golfweek. Myers led the Blue Devils to the 2005 ACC title -- the program's first since 1966 – and to an eighth place finish at the NCAA Championship -- the program's best since finishing third in 1962.
2014 – Men's Golf – Former Duke men's golfer Kevin Streelman birdied his final seven holes to win the Travelers Championship with a 15-under score of 265. His seven consecutive birdies broke the PGA Tour record for consecutive birdies by a winner, ironically held by another Duke golfer – Mike Souchak – when he birdied the final six holes at the St. Paul Open in 1956.
