BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Head coach Matt Moot has announced the 2026-27 Campbell University men's golf schedule.  The Fighting Camels will compete in a dozen events, traveling up and down the Eastern seaboard from Pennsylvania to Florida.
 
"We're excited about a full schedule this season that includes 12 tournaments, six different states, and several highly-ranked championship golf courses," said Moot, who is entering his second year as head coach of the Campbell men.  "Our players are best prepared when they are exposed to different types of golf and are given as many opportunities to tee it up as possible. This schedule does exactly that on some of the best venues in the country."
 
For the third-straight season, Campbell will open its campaign Sept. 6-8 with the Myrtle Beach Golf Trips Intercollegiate at Grande Dunes Resort.  Grande Dunes has been ranked among "America's 100 Greatest Public Courses" by Golf Digest and the Roger Rulewich design is one of Myrtle Beach's most sought-after tee times.
 
The 16-team field at Grande Dunes includes host Coastal Carolina and East Carolina, plus Campbell's CAA rivals Elon and UNCW.  Five players on the Camel roster have multiple rounds of experience at Grande Dunes.
 
The Camels head south on Sept. 21-22 for the FAU Invitational, which will be held at the Bear's Club in Jupiter, Fla.  Inspired by Royal Melbourne in Australian, Jack Nicklaus incorporated 354 bunkers into his 7164-yard design.  In addition to the host Owls, the FAU Invitational field includes power conference members UCF and Florida.
 
Campbell will also make a third-straight trip to Mystic Rock Golf Club in Farmington, Pa., for the Nemacolin Collegiate Invitational, hosted by West Virginia on Oct. 5-6.  Erik Johansson (T9) and Joachim Larsen Tegner (T15) posted top-15 finishes in the 2025 event, which is played on the 7526-yard Pete Dye design in Pennsylvania's Allegheny Mountains.
 
The Camels will again see CAA rivals Elon and UNCW, plus ACC members North Carolina and NC State in the Elon Phoenix Invitational, which will be held Oct. 12-13 at Alamance Country Club in Burlington, N.C.  Opened in 1947, the Donald Ross design plays to par 71 over 6867 yards.
 
Campbell closes the fall slate Oct. 18-19 at the Furman Intercollegiate.  The 2026 edition will mark CU's fifth-straight trip to the Richard K. Webel and Walter Cosby designed Furman University Golf Course, which stretches over 7200 yards and plays to par 71.  Last year, Erik Johansson (3rd) and Benjamin Killingstad (4th) produced top-five finishes at Furman, where the Camels finished as runner-up in the team standings.
 
The spring schedule commences Feb. 15-16 with the Battle at Briar's Creek, hosted by CAA rival Charleston at the Golf Club at Briar's Creek in Johns Island, S.C.  The 2027 field includes power league programs Wake Forest, Cincinnati, Clemson, Indiana, Iowa State and West Virginia, plus four CAA teams – Campbell, Charleston, Elon and William & Mary.
 
Rees Jones designed the Briar's Creek layout that stretches to more than 7200 yards over 900 acres of Low Country wetlands, marshes along the Kiawah River.  The 2026 event was canceled due to inclement weather.  Logan Graf (T18), Johansson (T19) and Larsen Tegner (T4) have all registered top-20 finishes in the event during their careers.
 
Last spring, the Camels started a string of 3-straight top-3 finishes in the Sam Ryder Intercollegiate, hosted by Stetson at the LPGA International Arthur Hills Course.  Johansson and William Sundborn tied for fourth and Killingstad finished T17 in the 2026 event, where Campbell finished third.
 
Campbell returns to Palmetto Golf Club in Aiken, S.C., Mar. 8-9 to defend its title in the Cleveland Golf Palmetto Intercollegiate.  Last season, the Camels delivered the first head coaching victory in Moot's career.  Killingstad (70-64-69—203) was the individual runner-up and Larsen Tegner (67-72-67—206) finished T4 on the par-70 layout.  Donald Ross and Alister MacKenzie had a hand in the design of the course, which opened in 1892 and is the second-oldest, continually-operated 18-hole course in the United States.
 
This year's trip to Palmetto will be the third-straight for the Camels, who finished in third place in the 2025 event where Henric Bjelke shared first-place honors.
 
Campbell will compete in the Seahawk Intercollegiate, Mar. 22-23, hosted by UNCW at the Country Club of Landfall's Nicklaus course.  In CU's last trip to the venue, Johansson recorded a bogey-free, 6-under-par 66 in the final round to finish in first place at 8-under (71-71-66—208), two strokes clear of Auburn's Jackson Kolvin (72-70-68—210).
 
The Camels will make a three-hour drive North on Interstate 95 to Independence GC in Midlothian, Va., to compete Apr. 5-6 for the Giles-Spratley Collegiate, hosted by the University of Richmond.  Campbell will play a Tom Fazio design that stretches up to 7,700 yards.
 
CU closes the regular season portion of its schedule Apr. 10-11 with the Tar Heel Intercollegiate at UNC Finley Golf Club in Chapel Hill.  This year's competition marks the third-straight year the Camels have competed in the event, while Johansson will play the Tom Fazio design, which was updated in 2023 by Love Golf Design, for the fourth-straight year after competing in the 2024 Chapel Hill Regional. 
 
For the third time in four years, the CAA Championship will be held Apr. 25-27 at the Tom Fazio designed Cotton Dike Course at the Dataw Island Club in St. Helena Island, S.C.  CU finished fourth at the site in both the 2024 and 2026 CAA Championships.  Larsen Tegner (T8) and Johansson (T10) turned in top-10 individual finishes as freshmen in '24, while freshman William Sundborn (T10) was Campbell's low individual last spring at the course, which winds through the tidal marshland, and live oaks, which date back hundreds of years, and Civil War era ruins.
 
The CAA champion will receive the league's automatic berth in the NCAA regionals, which will be held May 17-19 at six locations throughout the country – Bloomington, Ind., Loudon, Tenn., Lubbock, Texas, Marana, Ariz., and Murrells Inlet, S.C.  The top five teams and individual not on a qualifying squad, will advance to the NCAA Championship, May 28-June 2, at the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa – Champions Course, Carlsbad, Calif.
