A nearby stop in a five-tournament stretch in the Golden State kicks off Monday at the Bruins’ home tournament of the season.

Midterms, illness and an unfamiliar course were not enough to weigh the Bruins down.
Then-No. 11 UCLA women’s golf placed third with an 18-over 870 mark at the Alice and John Wallace Classic in Palm Desert, California, overcoming high fevers en route to its second-straight strong finish after a win at the Therese Hession Regional Challenge from Feb.

Capturing a team win after a nearly year-long drought can be a massive confidence booster for a squad.
But remaining focused and building on the momentum from a previous outing is a challenge that truly tests a team’s resolve.

Very few teams can go nearly a year without a win.
But in golf, when tournament fields often include eight or more programs and top-ranked teams dominate week after week, first-place finishes can be hard to come by.

Familiar opponents and a treacherous course lie in waiting.
No. 23 UCLA women’s golf will compete in the Therese Hession Regional Challenge, hosted by Ohio State, from Sunday to Tuesday at Palos Verdes Golf Club.

The Bruins’ winter season entered full swing with a loss to their crosstown rivals.
No. 23 UCLA women’s golf fell to No. 2 USC 3.5-1.5 in the fourth edition of the Battle for LA, evening the series record to 2-2.

In many professional sports, middle-of-the-pack performances can feel uniquely frustrating for fans and players – too low for chances of postseason success but too high for enticing draft picks.
