Kenda sponsored LPGA golfer Candie Kung recently participated on the HSBC LPGA Brasil Cup held from May 29th to 30 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. After two rounds of fierce competition against top players on the tour, Candie’s outstanding performance resulted with a final score of 141 or -5 landing her in third place.
At the end of the first round, Candie shot a 71 leaving her in fourth place. On the 18th hole of the second round, Candie birdied the difficult par 5 to enter the club house tied with the leaders Meaghan Francella and Mariajo Uribe. However, both Francella and Uribe both birdied 18 also to force a playoff between the two while Candie ended up just short in 3rd place.
With Candie’s great performance at the HSBC Brasil Cup, she has moved up to 21st place in 2010 official money list of the LPGA. With her performance overall this year, Candie has qualified for the upcoming LPGA US Open at Oakmont Country Club near Pittsburgh, PA, which will be played late June. Teresa Lu, the other Kenda sponsored LPGA golfer has also qualified for the US Open, the most prestigious LPGA tournament in the United States.
