San Diego State on Thursday announced plans to construct a $3 million golf performance center at The Farms Golf Club in Rancho Santa Fe, California.
The news comes on the heels of an anonymous $1.5 million donation. In addition, two golf simulators will be housed on campus.
The performance center will feature indoor hitting bays, team rooms, locker rooms for both men and women, a hospitality station and more.
“We are excited for this partnership with The Farms Golf Club,” San Diego State men’s golf head coach Ryan Donovan said in a release. “This is an opportunity to continue to build a national championship team as we develop and graduate our student athletes. This is made possible with the support of our university, donors, and alumni. Our university has elevated and expanded to the Pac-12 Conference, and the time is now.”

The project now has $2.1 million in commitments. San Diego State is looking to raise an additional $900,000 to complete the project.
“This new practice facility will be a game changer for our program, allowing us to compete at the highest level in an ever-evolving landscape,” San Diego State women’s golf head coach Lauren Dobashi said in a release. “Having a dedicated home not only enhances the training experience for our current student-athletes but also strengthens our recruiting efforts. This facility embodies our commitment to excellence and provides our athletes with the resources they need to thrive both on and off the course. We are incredibly thankful to our donors, the unwavering support of our school, and the athletics department, whose collective efforts have made this vision a reality.”
