Minnesota Golfer - Spring 2019 - 18
After 42 years, the top female golfers return to
Minnesota for the KPMG Women's PGA Championship.

he fi rst player to jam a tee into the Hazeltine National
Golf Club turf on Thursday morning, June 20, will be
one of 156 vying for the chance to hoist the 2 ½-foot tall
and roughly 25-pound KPMG Women's PGA Championship
trophy on Sunday evening.
Kerry Haigh, for one, is excited about it. The chief championship
offi cer for the PGA of America-hence the man responsible
for the course setup-hasn't lost his zest for seeing the best
women players in the world plying their trade. Haigh worked
directly for the LPGA from 1985 through 1988, working about
32 events a year.
" I certainly learned a lot and saw a lot in that time, " Haigh
says. " And fortunately that was when Nancy Lopez was in her
prime-among others, of course,
but Nancy was No. 1 then. "
Lopez burst onto the scene in
1978 and pretty much brought down the house, earning dual
titles by being named the LPGA Rookie of the Year and the
Player of the Year. That feat wasn't repeated for almost 40 years,
until Sung Hyun Park pulled it off in 2017. Park will arrive at
Hazeltine as the defending champion of the KPMG Women's
PGA Championship.
