Lewis Ready for Any Challenge at LPGA Champs

June 24th, 2010


The LPGA championship presented by Wegmans has finally begun. This four-day tournament located at the Locust Hill Country Club in Pittsford, NY is from June 24th -27th. Leaving her rookie status behind, this second year golf pro is looking for her first victory on the LPGA Tour.  Lewis has finished top 3 in previous tournaments since turning pro, but a win is on her mind this LPGA championship. Not only does Lewis show top potential, she also demonstrates the ability to conquer obstacles outside the green. Suffering from a serious case of scoliosis, Lewis was forced to pass on playing her first year at the University of Arkansas in order to have a crucial back surgery to attach a single rod and 5 screws to her spine. Since then, Stacy Lewis has been an inspiration to golfers and athletes worldwide due to her tremendous determination and spirit to overcome such a challenging disease.


Stacy Lewis sports the best fashions while on the greens. Fila’s design team works with Stacy to create golf looks that keep her comfortable and fashionable on and off the course. Even during the toughest of holes, Lewis keeps her cool in Fila’s lightweight golf collection.  The breathable fabrics allow any athlete to focus on making those long puts for eagle or birdies and not on the sweat while getting there!


Fila’s 2010 Golf collection is available on filagolf.com and country clubs nationwide.

Stacy Lewis Returns Home for LPGA Champs

November 16th, 2009

The best in the LPGA will converge upon The Houstonian Golf & Country Club in Houston this week for the LPGA Championship presented by Rolex.  LPGA Rookie Stacy Lewis, a former high school state champ from The Woodlands, qualified for the 120 person  72-hole stroke play competition.

As reported by the Houston Chronicle, Stacy is very excited to return home for the LPGA Championship:

“I think of Texas, I think of Houston and I think of golf,” she said.  “I don't think I have even played in Texas since high school, so this is a really exciting time for me to get to come home and play in front of friends and family,” Lewis said. “I also know firsthand how competitive golf is for girls in that whole area (Houston), and I know I would have loved to go to an LPGA tournament and watch when I was in high school.”

The LPGA Tour Championship will benefit Pediatric Orthopedic Services at Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital  - the same hospital where Stacy received her treatment for Scoliosis as a teen.

Stacy was interviewed on Channel 2 in Houston last night! See what she had to say about the LPGA Championship!  http://www.click2houston.com/video/21623701/index.html
