ATLANTA — A few of the nation’s top college golf programs will battle for the East Lake Cup beginning Monday.

The field features four men’s and four women’s NCAA Division I golf programs.

The three-day competition at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta begins with all eight teams participating in individual stroke play competition on Monday. The scores during stroke play will determine seeds for match play and semifinals held Tuesday, with the final round and consolation matches held Wednesday. The lowest men’s and women’s score in stroke play will also determine individual champions.

In addition to East Lake welcoming some of the most successful college golf teams, the field also includes some of the world’s top amateurs. Texas sophomore Cole Hammer (No. 78) and teammate Pierceson Coody (No. 72) will join Vanderbilt’s John Augenstein (No. 1), Oklahoma State’s Austin Eckroat (No. 66), Wake Forest’s Eugenio Chacarra (No. 19) and Alex Fitzpatrick (No. 74) on the men’s side. Wake Forest’s Emilia Migliaccio (No. 59), Arizona’s Vivian Hou (No. 5) and the Duke trio of Jaravee Boonchant (No. 31), Gina Kim (No. 36) and Ana Belac (No. 45) round out the top ranked amateurs on the women’s side.

The women’s side is exceptionally impressive in this year’s competition due to several players having competed in the inaugural Augusta National Women’s Amateur in April. Those who participated include Duke’s Belac, Boonchant, Kim and Erica Shepherd, Wake Forest’s Migliaccio, Arizona’s Hou and Auburn’s Kaleigh Telfer.
