The LPGA stays in America for the Volunteers of America LPGA Texas Classic.
The route, the Old American Golf Club, is in The Colony, a suburb of Dallas. In 2018 the event changed into typhoon-shortened to simply rounds, with Sung Hyun Park being declared the champion. This is the primary 12 months that the VOA will be held in October. You can capture Tony Jesselli's preview of this yr's playing over at his website.
In a few methods I assume the largest storyline this week is whether Mi Jung Hur can make it 3 LPGA wins this season, after her dominating overall performance at Indy. She has quite some own family members at this week's event, and that would help her get past the usually inevitable letdown after a win.
But Sung Hyun Park is likewise again and would love to defend at a four-spherical event. Two round events are not legit wins -- simply ask Stacy Lewis -- so a win right here could now not handiest protect her name however supply her a 3rd win this season as well.
This is likewise the final hazard for the girls to make it into the LPGA's Asian swing. It's the ultimate American occasion till the CME Group Tour Championship in November.
GC's coverage begins Thursday at 1pm ET. It should be very competitive with so much on the line.
