NCAA announces regional hosting sites for 2023-26 Div. I Women’s Golf Championships

Last November the NCAA Competition Oversight Committee approved a request to move to a six-regional format starting this spring with the 2022 championship, May 20-25 at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Stanford Golf Course in Stanford, California, and the Vanderbilt Legends Club in Franklin, Tennessee, were added as regional hosting sites for the 2022 championships, and the NCAA recently announced the additional two sites for each year through the 2026 championships.

“The Women’s Golf Committee is grateful for the remarkable response from the NCAA membership and local organizing committees to host these additional regionals for our women student athletes,” said Julie Manning, chair of the NCAA Division I Women’s Golf Committee and deputy athletics director and senior woman administrator at the University of Minnesota. “We’re excited to announce the addition of these eight venues and institutions as hosts for the 2023-26 regional championships. While we regret that we were unable to select all the high-quality venues and host institutions that submitted bids to host, we are optimistic that hosting interest will remain high as we prepare for next year’s bid process for the 2027-30 regional championships.”

Each regional site will feature 12 teams and six individuals, with the top four teams and top two individuals (not already on an advancing team) qualifying for the championships. A total of 72 teams will still qualify for regional play, with the number of individuals not on an advancing team increasing from 24 to 36.

Here are the regional and championship sites through 2026.
