2023 Augusta National Women's Amateur

Classes are back in session at most campuses across the country, which means college golf is set to officially tee off for the 2023-24 season this month.

As colleges and universities across the country are welcoming their student-athletes back to campus, most of the nation’s attention will be fixated on the preseason All-Americans and ANNIKA Award Watch List, but there are more than a few new faces in the college game that will be contributing immediately for their teams. It won’t take long for many of these golfers to become national stars.

These are the women’s newcomers to college golf that fans may want to keep an eye on this season.
