Here's a recap of all six NCAA Women's Golf Regional sites after the final round as well as who advanced to the national championship.

Purdue Individual winner: Carolina Chacarra, Wake Forest, 7 under Advancing individual: Lousiane Gauthier, Florida Gulf Coast Star performance: Purdue. The Boilermakers went to a playoff with Texas A&M to decide the fifth team to earn a spot at nationals, and thanks to Natasha Kiel's eagle putt, Purdue advanced to Omni La Costa in clutch fashion. Keep an eye on: Wake Forest. The ACC runners-up seem to be finding form at the right time. The Demon Deacons won the national title two years ago and are the only team to beat Stanford in any format this year (semis of ACC Match Play). Perhaps a dark-horse title contender. Norman Regional Winning team: Stanford, 22 under Advancing teams: 1. Stanford, 2. Northwestern, 3. Michigan State; 4. Oklahoma, 5. Baylor Individual winner: Andrea Revuelta, Stanford, 8 under Advancing individual: Audrey Ryu, Furman Star performance: Oklahoma. The hosts were outside of the cut line after each of the first two days, but 3-under performances in the second and final rounds helped the Sooners advance to nationals. Keep an eye on: Stanford. The Cardinal haven't lost to anyone in stroke play this season. Stanford is also the defending national champions and has won two of the past three titles. Can the Cardinal make it three in four years?

Charlottesville Regional Team leader: Individual leaders: The hook: If the cut were today: What to watch for Wednesday: Columbus Regional Team leader: Individual leader: The hook: If the cut were today: What to watch for Wednesday: Gold Canyon Regional Team leader: Individual leader: The hook: If the cut were today: What to watch for Wednesday: Lexington Regional Team leader: Individual leader: The hook: If the cut were today: What to watch for Wednesday: Lubbock Regional Team leader: Wake Forest, Even-par Individual leaders: The hook: After playing the opening round Sunday, the Lubbock Regional was able to finish its second round Monday, where Wake Forest has an eight-shot lead on Texas. But Texas is 18 shots ahead of the next closest teams, meaning the top spots are essentially locked up. However, only three shots separate Arizona and Iowa State, tied for third, and Tennessee and Texas A&M, tied for seventh. If the cut were today: 1. Wake Forest, 2. Texas, T-3. Arizona, Iowa State, 5. U.C. Davis What to watch for Wednesday: Whether ninth-seeded U.C. Davis can play spoiler. Only two teams carded better scores in the second round than U.C. Davis, with the Aggies a shot ahead of Purdue for the final spot. With the final round coming Wednesday, U.C. Davis will have to wait before its gets a chance to play its way into nationals. Norman Regional Team leader: Stanford, 16 under Individual leaders: Hsin Tai Lin, Northwestern; Ashley Yun, Northwestern; Meja Ortengren, Stanford; 5 under The hook: The top team in the country is comfortably ahead of the cut line after the second round, which was completed Monday afternoon. Northwestern was brilliant in the second round, shooting 10 under and is five shots behind the Cardinal. Meanwhile, Tulsa is looking to steal a bid, tied for fifth with North Carolina with 18 holes to go. If the cut were today: 1. Stanford, 2. Northwestern, 3. Michigan State, 4. Baylor, T-5. Tulsa, North Carolina What to watch for Wednesday: Baylor (1 over), Tulsa, North Carolina and host Oklahoma (3 over) are separates by four shots in positions 4-7. Come Wednesday, it'll likely be those teams battling for the final two spots. Can Tulsa steal a bit yet again? Can Oklahoma do the same on its home course?
