In Gee Chun and Ha Na Jang will be paired together for the first time since an escalator mishap in Singapore three months ago set off a tempest in their native South Korea.
Chun and Jang are scheduled to go off together next week in the first and second rounds of the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship at Sahalee Country Club in suburban Seattle.
Back in March, Jang’s father lost control of a 15-pound travel bag that crashed down an airport escalator and hit Chun in the tailbone, knocking the reigning U.S. Women’s Open champion out of the HSBC Women’s Champions just a few days before that event began.
