The Knights' schedule features two events that give exemptions into professional golf tournaments. The Carolina Collegiate Invitational in Spartanburg, South Carolina, which UCF will play in from October 11-13, provides the individual winner of the event an exemption into a Korn Ferry Tour event. Meanwhile, the Augusta Haskins Award Invitational, which the Knights will take part in from April 2-3 in Augusta, Georgia, provides the individual winner an exemption into a PGA Tour Event.
The Knights will play in five states throughout the 2021-22 season (not including postseason) as UCF will travel to Michigan, Connecticut, South Carolina (twice) and Georgia, in addition to playing five tournaments in Florida. The schedule also features two events that the Knights will participate in for the first time in The Carolina Collegiate Invitational and the Coral Creek Club Invitational.
Two familiar events highlight the Knights' fall portion of their schedule as UCF is the reigning champions at both the Hartford Hawks Invitational and the Isleworth Collegiate.
The Knights will return to South Kent, Connecticut from September 20-21 to play in the Hartford Hawks Invitational, hosted by the University of Hartford. The Black and Gold are three-time reigning champions at the event after taking first place in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
The Knights will close out the fall by hosting their home event, the Isleworth Collegiate, from October 17-19.
UCF is the defending champion at the Isleworth Collegiate, which is nationally recognized as one of the most prestigious tournaments in all of college golf.
UCF shot 844(-20) to win first place at the event for the first time in program history in 2019. The Knights' 54-hole total was 14 shots lower than the next best school, LSU, who shot 858(-6) in the three rounds of play. UCF's victory came at the expense of some of the top ranked programs in the nation, including No. 4 Texas Tech, No. 7 Arizona State and No. 18 Texas just to name a few.
Johnny Travale also earned individual medalist honors after leading all golfers with a 204(-12) total, beating out 74 of some of the best collegiate golfers in the world. His 204-shot total still stands as the fifth best 54-hole mark in program history.
Following the conclusion of the regular season, UCF will play in the American Conference Championship in Brooksville, Fla. from April 22-24.
All tournaments will have live stats available via Golfstat with links found on the UCF men's golf schedule page leading up to the event.
