OSU releases women’s golf coach Greg Robertson

STILLWATER – A week after guiding Oklahoma State to a 15th-place finish in the NCAA Championship, OSU women’s golf coach Greg Robertson was released by the university.

Oklahoma State University Director of Athletics Chad Weiberg  announced the change in a statement. Annie Young, who left her seven-year stint as head coach at Tulsa last year to return to OSU as an assistant, was named interim head coach. Young had previously been the Cowgirl head coach in 2008-11 and was a star player there from 2002-05.

“We appreciate Greg’s service over the past six years and wish him well in the future,” Weiberg said in the statement.

A national search for the next head coach will begin immediately according to the statement, which listed no reasons for Robertson’s dismissal.

Robertson, a former Cowboy golfer and five-time conference Coach of the Year coached the Cowgirls for six seasons, including an NCAA runner-up finish in the 2020-21 season. Following the season, Robertson was named Big 12 Coach of the Year. OSU also won the Big 12 title in 2023.

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.
