“The transformation of our women’s golf program under Diana’s leadership has been extraordinary, highlighted by our first SEC championship last spring,” vice chancellor and director of athletics Danny White said. “She has elevated our program to national prominence and we are excited to continue pursuing championships on Rocky Top!”
Cantu was hired as Tennessee’s head coach on June 8, 2021. She played for the Lady Vols from 2006-10. Cantu’s 130 career rounds are the fifth-most in program history.
“I am incredibly grateful to the University of Tennessee for its continued trust and support of our women’s golf program,” Cantu said. “Tennessee is a special place, and it is an honor to work with such outstanding student-athletes, coaches, and staff. Not to mention the best fans in the country!
“I am excited to continue building on the foundation we’ve established, competing at the highest level, and helping our student-athletes succeed both on the course and in the classroom.”
