Avnet LPGA Classic
Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Magnolia Grove, Crossings Course
Mobile, Ala.
Pre-tournament notes and interviews
April 27, 2011
Yani Tseng, Rolex Rankings No. 1
Se Ri Pak, Rolex Rankings No. 35 and defending champion
Stacy Lewis, Rolex Rankings No. 14
The Avnet LPGA Classic begins Thursday at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Magnolia Grove in Mobile, Ala. The 144-player field features eight of the top-10 ranked golfers in the Rolex Rankings and the winners of the last four major championships as they play the Crossings Course for a $1.3 million purse. The event is returning to Mobile for the third time, but many of the players are very familiar with the course since it has hosted LPGA tournaments in 11 of the last past 12 years.
This year's Avnet LPGA Classic field is filled with many of the Tour's biggest names. Rolex Rankings No. 1 Yani Tseng and defending champion Se Ri Pak lead the star-studded field. Tseng won the season-opening Honda LPGA Thailand and last month finished second in the Kraft Nabisco Championship, the season's first major. Also in the field this week are Stacy Lewis, who last month became a Rolex First-Time Winner by outlasting Tseng at the Kraft Nabisco, and LPGA and World Golf Halls of fame member Karrie Webb, who has won twice on the LPGA Tour already this year (HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore and the RR Donnelley LPGA Founders Cup in Phoenix).
Plenty of players will be looking for their first victories of the 2011 season this week including Rolex Rankings No. 3 Cristie Kerr, No. 4 Na Yeon Choi and No. 5 Suzann Pettersen. The field also includes sponsor exemptions Alexis Thompson, the 16-year-old who will be making her first appearance on the LPGA Tour this season, and Blair O'Neal, who won Golf Channel's Big Break: Dominican Republic.
Sweet Home Alabama: Defending champion Se Ri Pak appears to be returning to a place of comfort this week, as she gets set to play the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Magnolia Grove, Crossings Course. Since 2001, Pak has won a total of three times at this golf course. She tallied victories at the 2001 and 2002 Tournament of Champions and last year she won the 2010 Bell Micro LPGA Classic, which was rain-shortened to 54 holes, in a playoff over Brittany Lincicome and Suzann Pettersen.
Tseng-sational: Yani Tseng will try to continue her strong hold on the world's top spot while playing at the Avnet LPGA Classic this week. Tseng took over the Rolex Rankings No. 1 spot early this season after winning four straight events worldwide, including the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open and ANZ RACV Ladies Open co-sanctioned by the Australian Ladies Open co-sanctioned by Australian Ladies Professional Golf (ALPG) on the Ladies European Tour (LET) and the season-opening Honda LPGA Thailand on the LPGA Tour.
Tseng is looking to make history in 2011. She became the youngest player in LPGA history to win three majors by capturing the 2008 LPGA Championship, 2010 Kraft Nabisco Championship and the 2010 RICOH Women's British Open. A victory at this year's U.S. Open will complete Tseng's quest for the Career Grand Slam.
Twice as nice? Stacy Lewis, who became a Rolex First-Time Winner and a major champion by taking a three-stroke victory over Tseng at the Kraft Nabisco Champ
