Pure Silk Bahamas LPGA Classic…Feb 5-8

History: This is the third year for the event.
Race to the CME Globe: 500 Points
Purse: $1,300,000
Format: 72 holes
In 2014, Jessica Korda had been close to picking up win No. 2 of her LPGA Tour career many times over the past two years and on Sunday, she finally did it. The 20-year-old made a dramatic up-and-down on the 18th hole for birdie to defeat Rolex Rankings No. 3 Stacy Lewis by a stroke at the 2014 season-opening Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic. After hitting her second shot over the green on the par-5 18th that rested up against the grandstands, Korda took her relief and proceeded to putt the ball – while officials and volunteers held up cable – to six feet. As her birdie putt dropped in to move her to 19-under-par, Korda raised her hands in the air and was doused with Pure Silk shaving cream to celebrate her second career LPGA Tour victory.
