Perched on the foothills of the French Alps overlooking Lake Geneva South Korea's Inbee Park began her quest to silence the skeptics and complete the LPGA Grand Slam in Evian, France. There are two key facts to keep in mind this week: First, the Evian Championship was elevated to "Major Championship" status this year by the LPGA - making it the fifth major on the ladies' tour. Second, Park has already won the Evian tournament ... however, BEFORE it was classified as a Major.
Park, undoubtedly one of the most gifted lady golfers in many years, faces some still competition. After Round 1 Mi-Hyang Lee from South Korea and America's Lexi Thompson are co-leaders at -5 under par. Park finished her first round at +1 over par and is surely in striking range with 3 rounds to play. What are Park's chances of taking home the Evian trophy and more importantly validating that she has truly won a career grand slam? Send your thoughts to the Pro Golf Tour.
