The beginning of the 2023-24 College Golf season has been turbulent, to put it mildly.
The NCAA announced on Monday, October 16, that Clippd, an -based technology company founded by golfers and staffed with golfers who are passionate about the game, would be the official provider of college golf rankings and scoring. Spikemark Golf was replaced by Golfstat in July. It had a history of failures.
The website of Spikemark has been plagued with problems since day one. There are no official college rankings as the fall season is nearing its end. And there are still many questions from coaches and others involved in the workings of the sport.
