Northwestern Men's and Women's Golf will participate in the Jackson T. Stephens Cup ("The Stephens Cup"), one of the premier collegiate golf tournaments, this fall. Earlier this week, the event announced that tickets are officially on sale and that it has opened volunteer registration for the fifth annual event, to be held September 15–17, 2025, at Shoreacres in Lake Bluff, Illinois.
The tournament will be broadcast live on GOLF Channel, offering national visibility and showcasing the next generation of golf's elite in a format built to honor the values and vision of Jackson T. Stephens.
