Pillers share top-5 weekend at Swinging Skirts, Valero
DALY CITY, Calif. – Gerina Piller ended a special day smiling over the fact that she shared a top-5 weekend with her husband, PGA Tour pro Martin Piller.
A couple hours after Martin tied for fourth at the Valero Texas Open, Gerina tied for third at the Swinging Skirts Classic.
“Nothing makes me more happy than to see him succeed,” Gerina said.
Piller had a tough task, trying to catch Haru Nomura in heavy winds at Lake Merced Golf Club. She started the day five shots back and closed with a 1-over-par 73, finishing five back.
Piller, seeking her first LPGA title, is making a habit of hitting leaderboards this year. Sunday’s finish was her third top 10 in her last four starts.
