PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL — The Palm Beach County Sports Commission is pleased to announce the 2026 NCAA Division II Women’s Golf National Championship, taking place May 12–16, 2026 at The Champion Course at PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens.

Co-hosted by the Palm Beach County Sports Commission and Palm Beach Atlantic University, the championship will bring together the nation’s top Division II women’s collegiate golfers to compete for both team and individual national titles. This marks the second time the championship will be hosted in The Palm Beaches, following its successful staging in 2021.

The event will feature 108 student-athletes, including 20 qualifying teams and eight individual competitors. Following 54 holes of stroke play, the top eight teams will advance to a single-elimination medal match play format to determine the team national champion, while the individual national champion will be crowned based on stroke play results.
