Catch up on the 2025 NCAA Golf Championships with key schedules, top teams like Auburn and Stanford, and rising stars
With the tension of March Madness behind us and the College World Series yet to tee off, college golf steps into the national spotlight. The 2025 NCAA Golf Regionals are more than just a qualifying gauntlet—they’re a proving ground for legacies, future stars, and underdog runs. Across the country, teams are preparing to punch their tickets to Carlsbad, California, where the NCAA Championship will crown this season’s elite.
Auburn, last year’s first-time men’s champion, enters with a target on its back. Meanwhile, Stanford’s women’s team, a dominant force in recent years, aims to extend their legacy. But rising programs like Florida State—fresh off an ACC title—and upstarts like Marquette could shake up the status quo in surprising ways.
Championship Dates: May 23–28
Venue: Omni La Costa Resort & Spa, Carlsbad, California
Regionals: May 12–14 at six sites:
Each regional features 13 or 14 teams, with the top five teams and the lowest-scoring individual not on those teams advancing to the national championship. Auburn returns with much of its championship core and seeks to become the first back-to-back champion in over a decade. Jackson Koivun already secured back-to-back individual SEC titles for the Tigers.
Marquette enters the Urbana Regional as the #8 seed, riding momentum from a Big East title. Facing off against top-tier programs like Oklahoma State and UNC, their depth will be tested. David Ford of North Carolina, who leads the PGA Tour University rankings, already has secured five wins this season, while top amateur Luke Clanton of Florida State has already secured his PGA Tour card and will look to add an NCAA championship.
