CSWCI Notes

FORT WORTH, Texas – Oklahoma State women's golf returns to action Monday in Fort Worth at the Charles Schwab Women's Collegiate Invitational.

The Colonial Country Club hosts the event. Home to a par-70, 6,274-yard course, the club is routinely ranked as one of Texas's best. Every May since 1946, the Colonial has hosted the Charles Schwab Challenge, the PGA's longest-running single-venue tournament.

The Cowgirls return to action after a 20-day layoff. OSU secured its sixth top-5 finish of the season last time out at the Lady Luck Invitational, placing fifth. Marta Silchenko led the Cowgirls on the individual leaderboard, tying for 10^th.

Format:
The Charles Schwab Women's Collegiate Invitational is a 54-hole stroke-play tournament composed of three 18-hole rounds. Both the first and second rounds will be played on Monday, with the third and final round taking place on Tuesday. Each of the 13 teams will bring five golfers, with the top four scores counting toward daily totals.
