Wally Goodwin, the Hall of Fame golf coach who led Stanford and a young Tiger Woods to the 1994 NCAA Championship, died Monday at age 94.
Goodwin spent 13 seasons as head men’s coach for the Cardinal, producing not only the program’s first national team championship in 41 years but also a national runner-up showing in 1995, two Pac-10 titles and seven individual All-Americans, including Woods, who played two seasons at Stanford and won 11 times under Goodwin. He was twice the national coach of the year, in 1992 and ’94.
He is survived by his wife of more than 65 years, Nancy, their two sons and four grandchildren.
