College golf is a split-season, fall-and-spring sport.
Teams can look drastically different when the calendar turns in the middle of the season – and that’s in a normal year.
Using the Golfweek/Sagarin Rankings for women’s college golf, this chart shows each team’s performance only in the spring 2023 season. The far right column rates strength of schedule.
The women’s NCAA regionals are set to begin Monday, May 8 and end Wednesday, May 10. From there, top teams will advance to the NCAA Championships, to be held at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona, for the last time.
In the season-long rankings, Wake Forest is No. 1 as well but Stanford checks in at No. 2. The Cardinal are fifth here:
