The Crimson Tide women’s golf team released its 2013-14 schedule on Tuesday, and it features some of the most difficult events in collegiate golf.

Three of the four courses on the fall schedule – Tulsa Country Club, Vanderbilt Legends Club and Country Club of Landfall – have hosted or will host NCAA championships between 2009 and 2014.

“This is another challenging schedule that I hope will get this team ready to compete for SEC and NCAA championships,” head coach Mic Potter said. “The events on our schedule this year are very familiar, but extremely difficult from both a competition and venue standpoint. It will give this team a great opportunity to develop throughout the season.”

Alabama is fresh out of its fourth consecutive top-eight finish at the NCAA championships and eighth straight trip and plans to open the 2013-14 season at the Dale McNamara Fall Preview at the Tulsa Country Club in Tulsa, Okla., Sept. 9-11. The Tulsa Country Club will also be home to the 2014 NCAA championships.

The Crimson Tide then will return to the Mason Rudolph Women’s Championship Sept. 20-22, after a one-year absence. It will be the program’s seventh appearance in the event.

Alabama also will be making a return appearance in the Ruth’s Chris Tar Heel Invitational Oct. 11-13 at the Finley Golf Club in Chapel Hill, N.C.

The Crimson Tide will close out the fall schedule at the Landfall Tradition Oct. 25-27, in Wilmington, N.C., at the Country Club of Landfall.

Alabama plans to open the spring season at the Lady Puerto Rico Classic Feb. 16-18. The Tide has won the event the last four times it has participated, capturing the tournament title in 2008, 2010, 2011 and 2013.

Next up will be the always challenging Allstate Sugar Bowl Intercollegiate at English Turn Golf Club in New Orleans, La., Feb. 23-25.

Alabama will look to win its third straight team title at the Darius Rucker Intercollegiate March 7-9, at the Long Cove Club in Hilton Head Island, S.C.

The Crimson Tide then will return to the University of Georgia Golf Club for the Liz Murphey Collegiate Classic April 4-6; it will be the Tide’s 33rd appearance. Alabama has won the event three times, claiming victories in 1987, 2011 and 2012.

Alabama will begin postseason play on April 18-20, at the Southeastern Conference Championship at the Greystone Golf and Country Club’s Founders Course in Birmingham, Ala. The Crimson Tide won the program’s second SEC Championship in 2013 at Greystone.

NCAA Regional Championship play is scheduled for May 8-10 at one of three sites around the country. The Crimson Tide, if it makes it this far into the postseason, will compete at the East site, which is located at Florida State University. The 2014 NCAA Championships will be held at the Tulsa Country Club May 20-23.
