WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - As a new season is underway for the No. 2-ranked Wake Forest women's golf program, Demon Deacon alumnae continue to mark their mark on the global stage.
LET Tour
A graduate of the class of 2024, Mimi Rhodes sits atop the Order of Merit of the LET Tour. The Bath, England-native turned professional following graduation and has won three titles, two top-five finishes, and two top-10 finishes in her young career. This past weekend, she shot seven under to earn a top-15 finish at the Lacoste Ladies Open de France.
In August, she secured a top-five performance at the PIF London Championship with a first-round score at 69 and finished seven under par overall for fourth place. This past month, she competed at the Aramco Houston Championship, where she helped her four-player team finish as runner-up and posted a top-10 individual result at eight under.
Alongside Rhodes on the LET Tour is Dublin, Ireland-native Lauren Walsh, who currently sits 11th on the Order of Merit. Since beginning her professional career in 2023, Walsh has secured 10 top-10 finishes and fired a career-low round of 64.
Walsh's September campaign featured a runner-up finish at the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open and a top-five result at the La Sella Open, where she finished 10-under.
The newest member of the #DeacsonTour, Carolina Chacarra ('25), launched her professional career this season following a decorated collegiate run. A member of the 2023 national championship team, Chacarra was named the recipient of the 2025 Juli Inkster Award, presented to the highest-ranked Division I golfer in her final year of eligibility. The honor provides mentorship and support during her transition into her professional career and grants her automatic entry into Stage II of the 2025 LPGA Qualifying Series, held Oct. 15–18 at Plantation Golf and Country Club in Venice, Fla.
The 2025 NCAA Lubbock Regional individual winner made her first major appearance at the US Women's Open, where she finished T36. This past September, she finished T26 at the La Sella Open at two under.
