Ariya Jutanugarn isn’t a member of the LPGA in 2013, largely due to being denied an age-exemption to Q-school. Make no mistake though, this 17-year old young lady belongs on this tour. Coming into the 2013 Kingsmill Championship, Ariya had only played 3 LPGA events. Despite that, she has earned $328, 643 in prizemoney, which … Continue reading
