PHOENIX – Gerina Piller is an LPGA pro in transition, a mom learning to practice between diaper changes and feedings.
She missed the cut Friday at the Bank of Hope Founders Cup. It was just her second start in 15 months.
What’s life like playing with a baby in tow this week?
“It’s very humbling, the golf I’ve been playing” Piller said. “But just having my son out here, nothing compares to that.”
Piller posted 1-under-par 71 Friday at Wildfire Golf Club, not enough to overcome the 78 she shot in the opening round. She made her return to the tour at the HSBC Women’s World Championship in Singapore last month, putting up a couple rounds in the 80s.
