NEW BEDFORD, Mass., Sept. 1, 2011 – Kate Lord’s Brittany Lincicome recorded her second victory of the season at the LPGA Tour’s CN Canadian Women’s Open on Sunday. She battled heavy rain and high winds to shoot a 2-under par 70 and finish one shot better than the field at the Hillsdale Golf & Country Club north of Montreal. Lincicome and her caddy wear Kate Lord apparel.
“Brittany is a solid player on tour and always has such a positive attitude which on Sunday gave her a competitive edge in the tough weather conditions,” said Tracy Wilson, general manager for Kate Lord. “She has been a wonderful representative for the Kate Lord brand. The bright colors and classic designs complement her game and cheerful personality.”
The CN Canadian Women’s Open is Lincicome’s fifth LPGA Tour title. The 25-year-old hired a new caddie recently, former LPGA regular A.J. Eathorne, and Lincicome has won two-of-four tournaments since they began working together. The victory was worth $337,500 and puts Lincicome in the top-5 on the 2011 official LPGA money list. She will be representing the United States in the Solheim Cup next month.
The Kate Lord Collection that Lincicome wears on tour combines classic styles with new technical performance fabrics, resulting in a sharp look both on and off the course. Kate Lord Performance line features moisture management construction with high breathability to keep women feeling cool, dry and most importantly, comfortable throughout their round. The new collections for 2012 are Julep, Lavender and Seabreeze. Each collection includes a variety of performance polo styles and can be accompanied by color coordinated cotton cashmere sweaters, quilted vests, microfiber shorts and moisture wicking skorts. Kate Lord also has coordinating outerwear.
