Head Women's Coach Greg Robertson
Former Cowboy golfer and five-time conference Coach of the Year Greg Robertson is in his fourth season as head coach of the Cowgirl golf program.
In his time at Oklahoma State, Robertson has coached the Cowgirls to nine tournament victories, as well as 15 individual wins by seven different players.
Last season, Robertson's squad went a perfect 4-0 during the fall schedule. They would then go on to finish in the top-3 of every regular season tournament, a feat that had not been accomplished at Oklahoma State since 1973-74.
At the Big 12 Championship, Lianna Bailey shot a 215 (+2) to edge out the field by a single stroke and bring home the individual title. In the following weeks, Maddison Hinson-Tolchard would claim the individual title at the NCAA Stillwater Regional to help the Cowgirls advance to their second consecutive appearance at the NCAA Championships.
In the 2020-21 season, the Cowgirls captured the Big 12 Championship in record breaking fashion. OSU set new Big 12 Championship team records for the lowest 18-hole score (270), 36-hole score (549) and shattered the old 54-hole record by 26 strokes after carding the second lowest mark in school history at 34-under 830.
Robertson then guided the program to it's first ever appearance in the NCAA Championship match play finals, finishing as the National Runner-Up. Following the season, Robertson was named Big 12 Coach of the Year.
Throughout the last three seasons, Robertson has coached four WGCA All-Americans and two Big 12 Players of the Year, with Maddison Hinson-Tolchard earning both honors last season.
Before coming to Stillwater, Robertson spent the previous six seasons as the head coach at Kent State where he won 27 tournaments, including six Mid-American Conference titles, and coached three WGCA All-Americans, six MAC Golfers of the Year and five conference tournament medalists. He also led the Golden Flashes to each of the last three NCAA Championships, where they advanced to match play twice.
During his six years at Kent State, Robertson coached eight different players to 26 individual wins and was named Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year four times.
Kent State entered the 2019 NCAA Championships ranked No. 5 in the GolfStat national rankings after taking home their first regional title, sweeping the NCAA East Lansing Regional with a 4-under 860. Four of the five All-MAC First Team selections went to Kent State golfers in 2019.
Under Robertson, the Golden Flashes set the school record for wins in a season three times, lowered the team scoring average to a program-best 288.15 in 2019 and posted the lowest individual and team scores in MAC history.
His resume in the classroom is just as impressive. Robertson has coached 13 WGCA All-American Scholars, including seven at Oklahoma State.
Robertson joined the Golden Flashes from Purdue where he was the associate head coach for 11 seasons, working with both the men’s and women’s programs. He was honored with the Jan Strickland Assistant Coach of the Year Award in 2005, which is given to the best assistant coach in the country.
Purdue advanced to the NCAA Championships during each year of his tenure on staff. The Boilermakers captured the 2010 national title and Maria Hernandez was the NCAA individual champion in 2009. Overall, the Purdue women’s golf team had five top-5 NCAA finishes, one NCAA Regional title, and five Big Ten titles with Robertson on staff.
Purdue also boasted 16 All-American selections, seven Big Ten medalists, six Big Ten Player of the Year recipients, and 40 All-Big Ten selections during that time. The Boilermakers were one of just two programs to earn a top-10 finish at each of the NCAA Championships from 2006-13.
In his time at all three schools, Robertson has consistently led student-athletes to the top level of professional golf. Eight players under Robertson have earned their LPGA card, including recent Oklahoma State star Maja Stark, who just received her ticket to LPGA membership in August of 2022.
Robertson also has extensive experience as a caddy. He carried the bag for his sister, JoJo, at the 1998 U.S. Women’s Open, where she tied for 59th as an amateur.
His work as a caddie has been instrumental in the success of former Boilermaker star Maria Hernandez, having worked with her on several occasions. Robertson caddied for Hernandez during the final stage of LPGA Q-School in 2009 (t-5th), as well as the U.S. Women’s Open in both 2009 (t-34th) and 2010 (t-41st), the 2010 LPGA Tour Championship (t-68th) and the 2014 LPGA Marathon Classic (t-69th). Most recently, Hernandez made the cut in the 2015 LPGA Canadian Pacific Women’s Open with Robertson at her side.
Robertson also caddied for Kent State standout Jennifer Ha at the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open in 2014 prior to her senior season where Ha finished tied for 64th as an amateur in the LPGA event. Ha beat three Top 20 players in the world. Robertson’s golfers have now made the cut in all seven LPGA events he has caddied in.
He has also walked with former Oklahoma State teammate Chris Tidland in two events on the Web.com Tour and caddied for former Purdue standout Laura Gonzalez Escallon at the final stage of LPGA Q-school in 2013.
As a Cowboy from 1993-97, Robertson helped OSU win four conference titles, and captured the 1995 NCAA Championship alongside current Oklahoma State men's golf coach Alan Bratton.
Robertson, who redshirted his freshman year, graduated from Oklahoma State with a degree in sports science in 1997. He finished his collegiate career at the University of New Mexico and helped the Lobos win the 1998 NCAA West Regional.
Following his collegiate career, Robertson competed professionally for three seasons. In 2000, he played on the Canadian Tour and competed at the PGA Tour’s Nissan Open (now called the Genesis Open).
Robertson then began his coaching career in 2001 as a volunteer assistant coach at Oklahoma State and helped his alma mater finish 16th at the NCAA Championships.
Greg and his wife Ashlee have two sons, Michael and Tyler.
