Regional Championships

The six 54 hole NCAA Division I Women’s Golf Regional Championships will be played on 5th-7th May 2025.

72 teams and 36 individuals, from non-qualifying teams, were selected on 23rd April 2025 to compete at these competitions.

Local Conference Championships were played across the country in April with 28 Conference team champions granted automatic qualification into the 2025 Regionals. The remaining teams progressed based on their performances throughout the season.

12 teams and 6 individuals were allocated to each of the six Regional venues with a strength-of-field metric factored in to ensure balance and fairness across all of them.

Teams of five players play 72 holes of stroke play with their best four scores counting towards their team’s total score. Players, who play in each round, are also eligible for a separate Individual competition.

The leading 5 teams and the top individual (not on one of those teams) from each Regional event will progress to the National Championship which will be played at Omni La Costa Resort in Carlsbad, California on 16th-21st May 2025.

Regional Champion Awards have been given to the team champions at each site since 2024.

I will be updating this article with a summary of the results when play is completed.

National Championships

The Division I Competition Oversight Committee announced in January 2023 that the field for the Division I Women’s Golf National Championships would be increased from 147 to 156. The number of teams was also increased from 27 to 30 with the number of individual participants falling from 12 to 6.

The National Championships start off with 54 holes of stroke play. The top 15 teams and 9 individuals, not on an advancing team, then progress to a final 18 holes of stroke play. After these 72 holes have been played an Individual champion is determined and the top 8 teams advance to a match play stage to establish the Team champions.

Stanford beat UCLA in the Final of the 2024 NCAA Div. I Women’s National Championship in Carlsbad with Adela Cernousek (FRA / Texas A&M) winning the Individual title, her first collegiate win.

The six Regional Championships are shown below with each team listed in seed order.

GB&I players attached to the qualifying colleges are highlighted in bold blue type. Each team is now allowed to take a Reserve to the event so it is possible some may not play or be subbed in and out during the week. 21 GB&I players will be participating in this year’s Regional Championships.

Schools and Individuals with a Conference affiliation also noted below were the Team or Individual winners of these earlier tournaments.
