The Kent State Golden Flashes women's golf team is an intercollegiate sport at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, United States. The program was established in 1998 and competes in the National Collegiate Athletic Association at the Division I level as a member of the Mid-American Conference (MAC). Through the 2016–17 season, the Flashes have won 19 conference titles, all consecutively. Kent State is the only school to win the Mid-American Conference Women's Golf Championships, and has had team members win individual medalist honors in 15 of those years. The 19 consecutive MAC titles are a conference record for consecutive titles in any sport. In addition to their conference titles, Kent State has made 17 appearances in the NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championships, advancing to the championship round five times. The program's highest national finish is a tie for 5th in 2017.
Windmill Lakes Golf Club in Ravenna serves as the program's home course and occasionally hosts matches. The main practice facility is the Page and Ferrara Golf Training and Learning Facility, a 10,000-square-foot (930 m2) building located in Franklin Township, which the team shares with the men's golf team. The facility includes a 350-yard outdoor practice range, outdoor practice tees, and outdoor short-game practice areas as well as an indoor putting and chipping area, a video analysis room, and a Science and Motion Putt lab. In addition, the rear of the facility features heated stalls which allow team members to access the driving range year-round.
The Flashes are coached by Greg Robertson, who was hired in June 2013. He came to Kent from Purdue, where he served 11 seasons as associate head coach for the women's golf team. Under Robertson, the Flashes have won four MAC titles and made four appearances in the NCAA regional. He succeeded former coach Mike Morrow, a Kent State alumnus who established the program and coached its first 14 seasons. Herb Page, head coach of the KSU men's golf team since 1978, served as interim head coach for the 2012–13 season.
