Swedish golfer Linnea Ström and the LPGA tournament in Rogers, Arkansas, have proven to be a good combination. After finishing second last season in the tournament, the Swede has again taken a strong position with a shared seventh place ahead of the final round.
It's a good feeling to come back here. This course suits my game, and it's more challenging this year since we're not used to playing with as much wind, but I have no problem with that, she says to the golf tour's website.
Linnea Ström climbed the leaderboard after making seven birdies on the final nine holes for a total of 66 strokes, five under par. This puts her three strokes behind the leading South African Ashleigh Buhai, whose greatest achievement is winning the British Open two years ago.
This season has, however, been affected by injuries in the form of back problems and a broken toe – something that forced her to participate in the Olympic Games with one shoe clipped up to be able to play.
