RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. – If Pernilla Lindberg picks up where she left off winning the ANA Inspiration last year, she won’t see the challenges that new tee boxes, thicker rough and firmer greens create this week.
She’ll just see a bunch of great putts going in again.
Lindberg was unstoppable breaking through to make her first LPGA title a major championship last year, defeating Hall of Famer Inbee Park in an eight-hole playoff. She liked the vibes she felt returning in her practice rounds at Mission Hills’ Dinah Shore Course this week.
“I was rolling the putts, and just seeing how well they roll on these greens brought back some really good memories,” she said.
