I never said that golf programs didn't cut but much less than tennis programs. Minnesota eliminated tennis and kept golf, what does that tell you?
Where I live in the nation capital, George Washington University got rid of its men tennis program and still kept its men golf program, which 7 out of 8 players on the roster are international students
.
Edit: Even two Big10 schools like University of Maryland (local to me) and Rutgers University eliminated the men tennis programs but did not touch the men golf team. That said volume about the state of college men tennis these days.
