MAC Women’s Golfer of the Week
Savannah de Bock, Fourth Year, Eastern Michigan
Ecaussinnes-d’enghien, Belgium
Event: Leadership & Golf Invitational | Individual Score: 209 (-7)
Team Finish: 1st | Individual Finish: 1st
De Bock led the charge for an Eastern Michigan sweep at the 2026 Leadership & Golf Invitational, Sept. 14-15, at Chambers Bay outside of Seattle, as the fourth-year player finished as the medalist by one stroke after shooting 7-under 209. Only the eighth player in program history to win multiple titles for the Eagles, de Bock, the 2024 Golfweek Red Sky Classic winner, used a barrage of birdies on the final day to shoot 4-under 68 and move from fifth into the winner’s circle as EMU successfully defended the team title it won at Chambers Bay one year prior. Her score tied for the third-lowest in program history and gave her four of the top five marks in the EMU record books as she helped the team to its 13th all-time sweep and fourth in the past calendar year. She led the team to a 1-under 863 score, which ranked sixth in the program’s history and helped Eastern finish ahead of six teams that competed in the 2026 NCAA Regional competitions, including Oregon State and SMU, who reached the national event in May. Overall, de Bock secured the 28th individual title in program history while team secured its 31st.
