WICHITA, Kan. - Abbi Shaddix, a junior golfer at Wichita State, will tee off this week in the Garden City Charity Classic held at Buffalo Dunes Golf Course in Garden City, Kan.
Shaddix, a three-time Kansas Class 6A Regional Champion, received a sponsor exemption into the tournament that is part of the Symetra Tour, Road to the LPGA, and will help determine who earns LPGA Tour cards for the 2017 season.
Shaddix has played in the event before but missed the low 60 cut, back in 2014.
"I am really excited to have this opportunity again as I have grown a lot as a player and a person over the two years since I played," said Shaddix.
