How the 2024 NCAA DI Women’s Golf Championships Work

The Regionals took place May 6-8 and will be followed by the Championship Finals May 17-22 in Carlsbad, California.

In regional play, six 54-hole regional competitions are played to determine the participants in the championship final. Twelve teams and six people who do not belong to these teams compete in each region. The bottom five teams and the individual not on those teams advance to the finals. From 2024 onwards, regional championship prizes will be awarded to the team champions.

In the championship final, all 30 teams and six individuals complete 54 holes of stroke play. After 54 holes of competition, the top 15 teams along with the top nine individual players will advance for an additional day of stroke play to determine the top eight teams for the match play competition and the individual 72-hole stroke play champion. The top eight teams after 72 holes of play are placed into a bracket, with the No. 1 seed playing the No. 8 seed, the No. 2 seed playing the No. 7 seed, and the No. 3 seed playing the No. 6. seed and the No. 4 seed plays the No. 5 seed in match play.

A total of five points are available, with one point awarded for each individual match. The winning teams advance to the semi-finals and then to the finals. The first team to achieve three points in the team match will advance, or in the case of the final match, will be declared national champion.
