Forty-two of the top 50 female players in the world, including each of the top 20, will converge on The Woodlands, Texas, this coming week for the LPGA’s first major championship of the year.
Not part of that group is world No. 23 Linn Grant of Sweden.
First reported by Golfweek, Grant remains unable to compete in tournaments within the U.S. because of government travel restrictions related to COVID-19. Back in January, the U.S. government extended its requirement that international visitors be fully vaccinated, or have received the initial dose(s) of the COVID-19 vaccine.
