Inbee Park Wins Fifth LPGA Event of the Year


(HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA) – Cleveland Golf/Srixon congratulates staffer Inbee Park for winning the LPGA’s 2013 Walmart NW Arkansas Championship over the weekend at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers, Ark. Park, who is currently No. 1 in the Rolex Rankings, had to overcome a four-stroke deficit on Sunday before capturing her fifth victory of the 2013 season in a one-hole, sudden-death playoff.

This is Park’s second consecutive win, following her major championship triumph at the Wegmans LPGA Championship two weeks ago. Park enters this week’s U.S. Women’s Open having won the first two majors of the season and is hoping to enter the history books as only the second player in LPGA history to win the first three majors of the season.

“I thought I had to go pretty low today,” said Park, who shot a 4-under 67 in the final round for a 54-hole total of 12-under-par 201. “I am happy with the way I played. Everything has been going really well. Everything has come together in the last couple years.”

Park currently plays the new Z-STAR with Spin Skin technology, which will be released this August. This new model of the Z-STAR has already earned more than 40 professional wins worldwide. Park also plays a XXIO 7 driver, XXIO Forged irons (5-PW) and Cleveland 588 wedges (47°, 51°, 56°). Park wears a Srixon glove and shoes, and carries a Srixon bag.
