Golf’s major championship season ends this week as the LPGA travels to France and The Evian Championship.
Mike Whan’s LPGA Tour has had a memorable season and he hopes that continues at The Evian.
U.S. Women’s Open winner and the most popular player on tour, Michelle Wie returns from a month off due to a wrist injury. She has only been practicing for a few days but she’s anxious to get back on the course. Whether she can compete against a very strong field on a few days of practice may be too big a challenge.
Suzann Pettersen is the defending champion and will be trying to join Wie, Inbee Park, Mo Martin and Lexi Thompson as 2014 major champions.
Stacy Lewis hasn’t won a major this year and the world number one wants to change that in a big way.
Lydia Ko has found great success on the LPGA and would be the young major winner in history if she can manage her way over the hills of The Evian.
Inbee Park has regained her form and would like to be the only two time major winner in 2014.
So will Lexi Thompson who broke through for her first major at the Kraft Nabisco earlier this year.
The field is stacked at the picturesque Evian Resort Golf Club and it should be a great week in the mountains of France. But when The Evian rolls around to me it means one thing… The Evian Roller Babies. This one never gets old.
