Tournament of Champions a thrill for first-time LPGA winners

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Being invited to the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions is a special way to start the season, all the more for those who won their first career LPGA event in 2018.

Pernilla Lindberg’s first tour title came at the ANA Inspiration, after a two-day, eight-hole playoff against Inbee Park.

An initial triumph is always nice, but making your maiden win a major? “It was better than I could have ever dreamt of,” Lindberg said.

This is Linberg’s 10th year on tour. For every campaign she sets a goal to win, and for the first eight – nothing.
