SOUTHPORT, N.C. (April 11, 2024) – The CAA Women’s Golf Championship returns to The Reserve Club at St. James for a 54-hole tournament that begins Friday in North Carolina.
 
Ten CAA members will compete for team and individual titles on the par-72, 6,013-yard course with starts for the three rounds on Friday and Saturday at 8:30 a.m. and Sunday at 8 a.m. The tournament is the 10th CAA Women’s Golf Championship to be held at The Clubs at St. James (2012-16, 2018-19, 2022-24).

Charleston will aim for its third-straight title after winning on this course in 2022 and 2023. The Cougars are ranked 59th in Clippd and aim for their sixth title since joining the CAA in 2013-14. Charleston returns the medalists of the last two CAA Championships in Viktoria Hund (2022) and Emma Schimpf (2023).
 
League newcomer Campbell joins the CAA after finishing in the top two in 29 of its last 31 conference championships. The Camels are ranked 90th in Clippd and won their last seven league championships in the Big South.
 
UNCW, ranked 92nd, looks to pull even with Charleston in total CAA Championships after winning five between 2007-19. The Seahawks have won twice at St. James (2012, 2019) and look to improve on a fourth-place finish from a year ago. Charleston, Campbell, and UNCW will tee off the first hole beginning at 9:20 a.m.
 
Delaware enters the CAA Championship just outside the top 100 in the Clippd rankings and aims for its third CAA title after a back-to-back in 2016 and 2017 that included a win at St. James in 2016; the Blue Hens finished second in 2023 and have been in the top two in six of the last seven Championships. Elon is one of seven teams aiming for its first CAA title and turned in its top finish (third) since 2015 last spring. William & Mary will join Delaware and Elon as the groups teeing off from the first hole at 8:30; the Tribe placed sixth a year ago.
