LPGA Corning Classic

This week is the LPGA Corning Classic. Due to economic reasons and dwindling sponsors, etc. this will be the last year for the long standing LPGA event.

We are testing and training a number of LPGA golfers in conjunction with Adam Schriber including Candie Kung, Morgan Pressel, Amy Hung and Angela Park... so I made my way over to the course yesterday to watch them practice (our office is about 45mins from Corning in Endicott, NY).

These women are amazing golfers and athletes. I have spent alot of time around the PGA and men's golf in general and not so much if any around the LPGA until recently as we started to work with many LPGA and Futures tour players. Let me tell you, they can play and it is great to watch! In addition the atmosphere is much more low key and enjoyable than the PGA.

In addition, we are a part of training a number of women tour / college golfers and I can tell you they train like serious athletes. We have them cranking out kettlebell circuits, high intensity intervals, explosive plyometrics and they can hang with anyone in the gym or on the course. They take their golf and training super serious.

If you get the chance, I highly recommend checking out the Corning Classic or any LPGA event... you won't be dissappointed!
