Because long ago (Romans ?) winners and those who made important achievements were crowned with laurel leaves. So, basically, someone who is a laureate is virtually crowned with laurel
Gerda O'Conner
Nobel Prize winners are called Nobel Laureates in honor of Alfred Nobel, the inventor of dynamite and the founder of the Nobel Prizes. The term "laureate" traditionally refers to someone who has been honored or recognized for their achievements, making it a fitting title for recipients of the prestigious Nobel Prize.
