Stacy Lewis excited to play at Walmart NW Arkansas Championship 2012
American Stacy Lewis is firm to continue her stunning form in the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship 2012, scheduled to be played from June 29 to July 1, at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers.
Lewis has been performing well in the current season, and this week’s tournament is very important for her position in the world rankings.
Analysts said that the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship is going to feature a fearsome field this year, with the defending champion Yani Tseng seeking to repeat her last-year performance.
Moreover, other key contenders confirmed to play the tournament include Suzann Pettersen, Anna Nordqvist, English Laura Davies and Cristie Kerr.
Despite the strong field, it is expected that Lewis will come out as the toughest player in the field. Given her performance in recent events, it is easy to predict how the rising golfer is going to fare against
her rivals.
Another factor that puts Lewis in a better position than most of the other contenders is a huge crowd support she is likely to get. Playing for the University of Arkansas as an amateur golfer, the American
prodigy has made a name for herself in the eyes of local crowd.
With massive support from her fans, Lewis is determined to add yet another victory to her already-stunning profile.
Speaking to the media about what she thinks about the impending battle at Pinnacle Country Club, the 27-year-old American said that she has been associated with the course and the University for a long time,
which is definitely going to help her display a much better game.
Lewis kicked off the current year in an impressive style. She has racked up two titles in the season so far, and is looking forward to adding more shine to her profile.
“I say it all the time, I would not be where I am if I had gone to any other university, and I honestly feel that way,” said the golfing sensation.
“I came here as a kid that – I could not swing a golf club at the time and there was no guarantee I would ever play golf again, and this university and these coaches took a chance on me,” she added.
