Hur wins the inaugural Yokohama Tire tourney

Sept. 22, 2014

Only one professional golfer in the world owns a trophy that reads "Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic Champion."

The inaugural tournament, held at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail at Capitol Hill in Prattville, Ala., from Sept. 18-21, 2014, was won by Mi Jung Hur, a 24-year-old golfer from South Korea. She finished 21-under-par on the Par 72 Senator Course to defeat the No. 1 ranked player on the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) tour, Stacy Lewis, by four strokes.

Earlier this year, Yokohama signed a multi-year deal to be the title sponsor of the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic.
