South Carolina Women's Golf head coach Kalen Anderson unveiled the 2026-27 season schedule, featuring nine regular season events, including five repeat tournaments from last year. The season kicks off with the ANNIKA Intercollegiate (Sept. 7-9) in Lake Elmo, Minn., where the Gamecocks have claimed victory three out of the last five years. Other key events include the Jackson T. Stephens Cup (Sept. 14-16), the Evie Odom Invitational (Oct. 9-11), and the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate (March 1-3) with live coverage from the Golf Channel. NCAA Regional selections will occur in late April, with the Gamecocks also set to host a regional tournament at Old Barnwell in Aiken, S.C.
