Inbee Park Set To Go For Golf’s Elusive Grand Slam
I must admit that I never…ever…thought I would write a blog entry about an LPGA player going for a Grand Slam. Somebody has to win the first Major of the year, the Kraft Nabisco Championship.

Ariya Jutanugarn Maintains Lead After 2nd Round Of 2013 Kingsmill Championship
