Tim Mickelson, who had led the University of San Diego to the school's first three NCAA appearances in program history, was named Sun Devil head men's golf on July 10, 2011. Mickelson, a four-time West Coast Conference Coach of the Year honors, is the 13th coach in the history of the program which won national titles in 1990 (under Steve Loy) and 1996 (under Randy Lein).

"Sun Devil fans have heard me speak frequently about identifying and hiring Master Coaches at Arizona State University," said Vice President for Athletics Lisa Love. "Tim Mickelson possesses the qualities of what we're looking for and not just because of his famous last name. He is a talented leader, a knowledgeable coach and a dynamic recruiter. He has the ability to rally our Sun Devil community around the sport of men's golf. He knows our program from being a student-athlete here and he understands the Sun Devil Way. When our other head coaches and staff met him they also were struck by his personality and demeanor."

"It's an honor to be the next men's golf coach at Arizona State," says Mickelson. "Our goal will be to produce teams and individuals who are competing at the highest level. I want to express my gratitude the University of San Diego for giving me the opportunity to become a head coach and I also want to thank everyone at ASU for the opportunity to take the reins of this program and guide them in the future. I look forward to working with the Phoenix golf community in promoting the program and working with another national championship coach in Melissa McNamara Luellen [women's golf NCAA champions in 2009]. It's an honor and a privilege to once again be a part of Arizona State and the Pac-12 Conference. Fork `em Devils!"

Mickelson, the younger brother of Sun Devil and PGA Tour professional Phil Mickelson, arrived at ASU following a remarkable eight-year run at USD where he steadily built the program into a national contender, which has finished in the Top 20 each of his last three years (2009-11), including an eighth-place finish in 2010. In addition to advancing to NCAAs the final three seasons, Mickelson guided the program to the NCAA Regionals five of his final six seasons, including the last four. He also spear-headed the most successful season in USD history in 2009-10, leading the Toreros to a school-record five tournament victories and 10 top-five team finishe

In 2011 Mickelson was named WCC Coach of the Year for the fourth time in his career (2011, 2010, 2008, 2005), as he led the Toreros to nine top-five finishes, including a pair of tournament victories, and a 16th-place finish at the NCAA Championships. Under Mickelson's guidance, USD junior Alex Ching was named the WCC's Golfer of the Year.

After inheriting a Torero team that had placed in the lower half of the WCC in 2003, Mickelson immediately led San Diego to a top-tier conference finish in his first year directing the fortunes of the USD program. Mickelson's second campaign was highlighted by San Diego winning team championship honors at the 17-school, 2005 Men's Fidelity National Title held at Cypress Ridge Golf Course on California's Central Coast.

Prior to taking the head coaching position at USD, Mickelson spent two seasons as assistant to Dale Walker at San Diego State, helping lead the Aztecs to back-to-back appearances in the NCAA Regionals, as well as an appearance in the 2003 NCAA National Championship.

Mickelson, who was a member of ASU's 1996 NCAA Championship team, played three seasons at Arizona State (1995-1998) before concluding his collegiate career at Oregon State. He earned Academic All-Pac-10 honors in 1997 and 1998. At OSU Mickelson finished second individually at the 2000 Pac-10 Championships, leading the Beavers to a second-place conference finish. The current holder of numerous OSU golf records, including low 18, 36, 54, and 72-hole scoring records, he graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree in Liberal Studies.
