Hidy Ho Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 She's Luk-Krueng, I believe, and born and raised in USA but her father is an immigrant from Bangkok, Thailand. She won her 1st LPGA tournament today ... I'd think she's the first person of Thai heritage to win a LPGA tournament. She also has the longest last name in LPGA. ---------------------------------------------------------------- FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Stacy Prammanasudh made consecutive birdies at Nos. 16-17 to pull away from defending champion Lorena Ochoa and win her first LPGA Tour title at the Franklin American Mortgage Championship on Sunday. Prammanasudh made back-to-back birdies twice in the final round and closed with a 3-under 69 for a 14-under 274 total to become the first first-time winner on tour this season. ... The 25-year-old Prammanasudh, who had her father as her caddie, made a 10-foot birdie putt at the par-4 sixth to move to 11 under. Meanwhile, Ochoa pushed her 80-foot birdie 12 feet past the hole and failed to save par, falling to 9 under. ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
