Under head coach Shauna Taylor, the Arkansas women's golf program has become one of the most successful teams on campus. Two of the biggest reasons why? Gaby Lopez and Maria Fassi. Though both hail from Mexico, Arkansas quickly became a second home. First for Lopez, who would win three times in college and become a two-time All-American, and has since won twice on the LPGA Tour. And then for Fassi, who would help the Razorbacks win their first SEC title in 2018 and then win the NCAA individual title in 2019 in Fayetteville, all while becoming the first two-time winner of the Annika Award—the Heisman Trophy of women’s golf. With Taylor’s guidance and Lopez and Fassi setting the standard, this is a program that’s risen to be one of the best in college golf. How’d it happen? Find out as Taylor chats with Lopez and Fassi in this bonus episode of the podcast.
