(LOS ANGELES, Calif.) – For the second consecutive year, the LOHLA SPORT Tournament of Club Champions featuring Annika Sorenstam at Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, Calif was won in a three-way playoff.
Adrienne Cipparone (Fairbanks Ranch CC, Rancho Santa Fe, Calif.) bested runner-up Corey Weworski (Omni La Costa Resort and Spa, Carlsbad, Calif.) and third-place finisher Nathalie Grainger of Seminole Golf Club (Jupiter, Fla.). All three are exempt into next year’s tournament.
The dramatic playoff on No. 18, the most difficult hole on the course, saw all three approach shots go for the green, not commonly lay up on two before water. Only Cipparone’s landed on the green and only 18 feet from the hole, prompting rousing applause from onlookers.
The third annual stroke-play competition was contested between 32 current gross ladies’ club champions representing golf and country clubs coast to coast and in Canada that carry LOHLA SPORT, the premium ladies’ golf-lifestyle apparel brand.
“This group of ladies is marvelous,” said Annika, LOHLA SPORT global ambassador who participated in a fireside chat hosted by actor Matt McCoy. “They’re confident, inspiring and compatible on and off the golf course – not to mention, they look incredibly flattering in LOHLA SPORT outfits.”
“There’s something truly special about competing and connecting with your peers,” said Cipparone, who works at Bank of America and played collegiate golf at Cal State Northridge. “And to do it with Annika Sorenstam there makes it even more memorable. The entire event was an unforgettable experience.”
XXIO, Rubicon Financial, Safe Harbor Pension & Wealth, Kendra Scott, Duca del Cosma, DAOU Vineyards & Winery, SAUZ, Pixi Cosmetics and Beverly Hills MD Cosmetics were participating partners.
The tournament expresses appreciation for the nearly 600 fine golf shops experiencing outstanding sales of LOHLA SPORT tops, bottoms, skorts, outerwear and accessories which seamlessly transition from the course to the office and social settings.
