TCU notches its 29th NCAA Tournament berth in the last 32 seasons
FORT WORTH – Once again, the TCU is playing postseason golf, as the Horned Frogs received an at-large bid to the 2026 NCAA Tournament and will make their 29th NCAA Regionals appearance in the last 32 seasons.
TCU was assigned to the NCAA Waco Regional and begins play on May 11 at Ridgewood Country Club.
The Horned Frogs notched their second consecutive NCAA Regionals berth and have qualified as a team in six of the last seven completed seasons dating back to 2019. The program has advanced to the NCAA D1 Women's Golf Championship nine times under the direction of head coach Angie Ravaioli-Larkin. TCU most recently booked back-to-back trips to the national championship 2022 and 2023.
TCU is the No. 7 seed in the Waco Regional. Joining TCU in central Texas are, in order of seeding, Texas A&M, Oregon, Tennessee, SMU, Baylor, LSU, Tulsa, Colorado, Northern Arizona, Tarleton State and Prairie View A&M.
The top five teams and highest-placing individual on a non-advancing team qualify for the NCAA National Championships, which take place from May 22-27 at Omni La Costa Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, California.
TCU has tallied three top-five team finishes in the 2025-26 campaign. Its best performance came in September, when the Horned Frogs placed second out of 16 teams at the Schooner Fall Classic, signing for an 11-under 829. Gracie McGovern co-medaled, shooting a nine-under 201 to become the program's 24th individual champion. The Horned Frogs' season scoring average of 292.9 ranks fifth in program history.
McGovern is one of four players in TCU's lineup with NCAA Regionals experience. Kirstin Angosta, Camille Min-Gaultier and Sofia Barroso Sá, along with McGovern, who teed it up at the 2025 NCAA Lexington Regional in the Frogs' last postseason foray. TCU finished sixth and fell one stroke short of reaching the final site.
All four players have cracked the top-100 of the collegiate Scoreboard rankings at various points in their college careers. Min-Gaultier is TCU's highest-rated player in both the Scoreboard rankings (No. 62) and world amateur golf rankings (No. 67). Barroso Sá has twice played at Nationals, last year as an individual and first as a freshman in TCU's most recent team qualification in 2023. Angosta was the Horned Frogs' top performer at the Big 12 Championship from Thursday-Saturday, tying for 10th (+1, 217) and earning All-Tournament Team honors.
