Golf is one of the most popular sports at Methodist. The women's golf team has won 26 national titles, winning every national title from 1986 to 2012 except 1990 and 1997, when they finished as the national runner-up both years. They later won again in 2021.[6] The men's team also has 14 NCAA Division III national golf championships (1990–1992, 1994–1999, 2010, 2015, 2018, 2022, 2024) and were runners-up three times (1984, 1989, 2000).[7]
