FAYETTEVILLE — LPGA icon Stacy Lewis always comes home to the LPGA’s Walmart NW Arkansas Championship as queen of University of Arkansas women’s golf.
She always will as long as she plays the game.
But for this year's tournament, June 28-30 at the Pinnacle in Rogers, the queen requires a throne fitting two.
For in her final tournament as a Razorback, Maria Fassi, became a queen in her own right.
The about-to-turn-pro UA senior from Mexico became women’s college golf’s individual national champion. Despite gone-with-the-wind conditions in the foul weather shortened from 72 to 54 holes stroke play, Fassi shot a final round 68 Monday.
