AUBURN, Ala. – The Auburn women's golf team is looking to book its fourth straight trip to the NCAA Championship. To do that, the Tigers will have to finish fourth or better this week at the NCAA Stillwater Regional. 

The regional features 12 teams vying for four spots and tees off Monday from Karsten Creek Golf Club (Par 72; 6,303 yards) in Stillwater, Oklahoma. 

Auburn, ranked No. 19 nationally, earned the fourth seed at the regional and will compete against the likes of Oklahoma State (6), Arizona State (7), Baylor (17), Michigan State (30), Clemson (31), Campbell (42), Furman (44), North Carolina State (54), California (55), Tulane (87) and Illinois State (145).  

The Tigers are coming off a first-place finish in stroke play at the SEC Championship where junior Megan Schofill finished as the individual runner-up. Schofill will be No. 1 in the lineup this week, followed by sophomore Anna Foster and the team's three super seniors – Mychael O'Berry, Kaleigh Telfer and Julie McCarthy. 

Schofill, Foster, O'Berry and Telfer all played a part in last year's regional, helping Auburn rally in the third round to clinch their ticket to the NCAA Championship. 

Telfer is the lone Tiger to play in each of the last three NCAA Regionals and was part of the team that played the NCAA Championship at Karsten Creek Golf Club in 2018. 

Auburn will tee off at 8 a.m. CT on Monday and will play the opening round alongside Michigan State and Clemson. Live scoring can be found on golfstat.com
