The 2016 NCAA Division I Women's Golf Championship was contested May 20–25 at Eugene Country Club in Eugene, Oregon.[1] It was the 35th annual tournament to establish the national champions of the 2016 season in NCAA Division I women's collegiate golf. The tournament was hosted by the University of Oregon. There were both team and individual championships.

This was the second time, following the previous year, that the men's and women's Division I golf tournaments were played at the same location; the 2016 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship was held in Eugene after the women's championship from May 27 to June 1.[1]
