The WAAP has the most attractive set of prizes in terms of the opportunities it gives the players. The winner gets an exemption into three Majors. They are the AIG Women’s Open, the Amundi Evian Championship and the Chevron Championship. In addition the winner gets to play the Augusta National Women’s Amateur Championship, the Hana Financial Group Championship and the Women’s Australian Open.
Rianne, who was tied third in Manila, added, “I am not familiar with her, but knowing that we have a great competitor in the field just keeps the competitive juices flowing, so it’s going to be a good tournament this week.”
Rin Yoshida is the highest-ranked player at WAGR No. four, and she will be playing only her second tournament outside Japan. It’s a similar story with Yahui Zhang of China has won nine WAGR events in her home country to climb to number 34. She also played at the Queen Sirikit Cup in the Philippines last month.
