mtls2005 Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 An amazing run, especially for a 20 year old rookie. It will be interesting to see if she can win the next major, in two weeks: Women's PGA Championship June 9 -12. Ariya captures third LPGA title in a row CHICAGO - Thailand's Ariya Jutanugarn won her third consecutive LPGA title on Sunday, firing a final-round five-under par 67 to win the inaugural Volvik Championship by five strokes over American Christina Kim. Ariya became the first player to capture her first three LPGA crowns in consecutive fashion, the 20-year-old from Bangkok moving within two of the tour record win streak of five events by Sweden’s Annika Sorenstam and American Nancy Lopez. Ariya became the first Thai player to win an LPGA title by taking the Yokohama Tire Classic in Alabama earlier this month and added the Kingsmill Championship last week. http://www.nationmultimedia.com/breakingnews/Ariya-captures-third-LPGA-title-in-a-row-30287001.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckd Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Ever since she lost to Yani Tsing on the 72nd hole of the Siam CC Honda Classic, I have felt she was destined for better days. She is having those better days now and all of Thailand should be very proud of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
