Lewis set for unexpected start at CME Group Tour Championship
Players competing for $1.5 million at LPGA finale in Naples
0:001:07NAPLES, Fla. – Stacy Lewis rarely sneaks into a tournament.
The former world No. 1, the only American to win the Rolex Player of the Year Award (twice) or Vare Trophy (twice) in the last 25 years, remains a formidable presence in the game, albeit one in transition as a new mom on tour.
But even Lewis didn’t expect to make it into this week’s CME Group Tour Championship.
After withdrawing from the Solheim Cup with a fractured rib two months ago, Lewis fully expected her season was over. She was resigned herself to completely mending for next year while fully devoting herself to her infant daughter, Chesnee.
