Swinging Skirts LPGA Classic Preview and Pairings

[tonyj5]

There has been so much excitement on the LPGA so far this year, that it is hard to believe that the season is only 1/4 over. Hall of Famer Karrie Webb has already won twice this year. That has been matched by Anna Nordqvist's 2 victories. Fan favorites Paula Creamer and Michelle Wie have each brought home a trophy, and future superstars Lexi Thompson and Jessica Korda have also been in the winner's circle.
Fan interest is growing, television ratings have never been higher, and they still have 75% of the schedule to play (and that includes four more majors).

The LPGA moves back to the state of California this week for the inaugural playing of the Swinging Skirts LPGA Classic.

This will be tournament # 9 of 32 on the schedule this year.
