History

Historical Context

The NCAA Women's Golf Championship roots trace back to the 1971 formation of the AIAW, which championed women's collegiate sports. Title IX's 1972 enactment fueled growth, leading to NCAA's 1982 takeover of women's championships. This year's qualifiers, South Carolina, Kansas, Oregon, and Florida State, continue that legacy.
