IJGA Alumnae to Compete in Women’s PGA Championship

Three International Junior Golf Academy (IJGA) alumnae–Mariajo Uribe, In-Kyung Kim and Shanshan Feng–will be competing in the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship this week. The LPGA tournament will be hosted at Sahalee Country Club in Sammamish, Washington, on June 9-12, 2016.

Kim and Uribe are coming off their best finishes of the year, T6 and T14, respectively, in the ShopRite LPGA Classic.

Feng has three Top 10 finishes on the LPGA Tour this year in addition to one win on the Ladies European Tour.

One of five majors on the LPGA Tour, the Women’s PGA Championship began in 1955. Feng won the tournament in 2012.
