For the third and final year in the Valley of the Sun, the 2023 NCAA Women’s and Men’s Division I Golf Championships began with Thursday’s practice round. The women’s competition will be contested May 19-24 followed by the men’s May 26-31. The field for each championship will be made up of 30 teams and six individuals.
Each six-day championship starts with three days of stroke play, Friday through Sunday (54 holes). The top-15 teams and nine individuals (not already on an advancing team) move on to a final 18 holes of stroke play (Monday) to determine the 72-hole individual champion as well as the top-eight teams advancing to match play. The team championship is determined through match-play, with quarterfinals and semifinals on Tuesday, followed by the finals on Wednesday.
