Becoming a college golfer - particularly at NCAA Division I level - is a rare achievement. Figures show that even though there are approximately 220,000 high school golfers in the US in any given year, only around 10% reach college level, with around 5,000 men’s and women’s golfers reaching NCAA Division I level.
Those numbers confirm the inevitable: you need to play the game to an impressively high standard to make it to the top of the college system. But what handicap do you need make it to college golf?
