TU Women’s Golf
- Thread starter TU1NNJ
- Start date
They have been putting in decent rounds - Little inconsistent early but I have a feeling they will be aiming for the conference championship by end of year.
That is tremendous to hear! We need to get back to top of the conference and challenging in the NCAAs.
Last year they finished ranked like #34 in the country I think and made the NCAA tournament. Big improvement from where they where in previous years.
Last I looked I believe that are #51 right now but I think we will close in around the top 25 before it's all said and one. I would put us on "par" with last year. Last years team might be slightly better but we are younger this year. Next year's team will be slightly better.
Didn't the ladies advance to the NCAA Championship round last year? They failed to make it out of stroke play though to the match play portion. Still after the lean years last year was a good first step to regaining perennial power status.
I’ll amend my comment. What I meant is we need to live at the top of the conference. That’s the only way the world feels right.
TU Women kicked off the Spring golf season at the Nexus Intercollegiate in the Bahamas. They came away with a 3 stroke win in the event that included Iowa State, Kentucky, North Texas, Mississippi State, Houston, Texas Tech, illinois, UTSA, Michigan, and Boston College.
Great finish in an event with a really good field. TU shot the lowest team round in the event in the second round carding a 289 total. That was a stroke better than the 290 Texas Tech shot in the opening round. TU also carded the 3rd best round at 292 in the final round which tied with Houston and UTSA on that day. Just looking at the overall scores on day 3, TU shot a good round) and I'm guessing) in some pretty windy conditions as most rounds were 300+. It's good to see the program back among the top programs in the nation.

2nd win of the year. Young team now with a lot of freshman and sophomores. This follows a year where they made the NCAA tournament. Good job 👍
Does anyone know what's up with the team? They were supposed to play in the Chevron Collegiate today but aren't listed in the results. https://results.golfstat.com/public/leaderboards/gsnav.cfm?pg=team&tid=28717
Looks like we only brought three players. Did not compete in team event but only individual. Showing:
Sydney Seigel T38
Allyn Stephens T40
Norah Seidl T45
after two rounds.
Something must have happened. That's all I could find as far as who was competing.
Team pulled out of tournament due to illness of other players. Couldn’t field enough to compete.
HOUSTON, Texas –– Three Tulsa golfers participated as individuals this week in the 54-hole Chevron Collegiate at the par-72, 6,392-yard Golf Club of Houston course.

SMU at 33-under, my backside. Sounds like they treated it like an 18-hole company scramble and their NIL bought 99 mulligans.
Finished runner up in the OU match play. After stroke play we were the number 2 seed. Got to the finals and lost to OU 3-1-1.
No shame in that. Tough to beat a home team in golf, especially in match play when they know the putts, where not to go, what escape shots to play when in trouble. I'm assuming they played the Jimmie Austin course. I've played there a couple of times. It's not an overly difficult course but you can end up in some funky places because of the contour of the fairways and some of the mounding.
Just shows you how much we really need to work on our defense.......ugh!
Birdie on 18 by Grace. Last hole last day. To edge Houston and Georgia by one to make top 5 and qualify for the NCAA.
2nd year in a row to make NCAAs which is difficult to do! Several large schools have not done that. I was surprised to learn Florida and Arizona did not make it.

Most club pro’s do not make much money in base salary. They make money giving lesson’s and clinics. Unless you go to a club without an existing pro on staff it takes time to build up your client base. I have about 10 friends that are teaching pro’s and they all have the same story. Either need to become Director of Golf at an exclusive club or General Manager of less exclusive club to make much money.
