Karrie Webb Wins LPGA Tournament at Salina Country Club
Salina Country Club— a client of ON Advertising, proudly hosted the 2022 LPGA Senior Championship with a full three-day event coming to an end last week. Karrie Webb was named the winner by the end of the live-streamed tournament and crowned this year’s first-time Senior Champion!
The LPGA event brought people together from around the world to participate and enjoy a weekend-long tournament filled with challenging and exhilarating activities for amateurs and professionals alike.
We are proud to have supported this much-anticipated event by creating beautifully graphic designed signage, an official Tournament Program Booklet, and more that we’ll discuss further on.
Now let’s dive into the details!
Annika Sorentstam vs. Karrie Webb
The tournament had been billed as a Battle of Hall of Famers, as the 47-year-old Webb and 51-year-old Annika Sorenstam rekindled a rivalry that spans decades. Sorenstam, a Swede, and the Australian Webb have played head to head dozens of times and have a combined 113 LPGA titles, including 17 majors and a total of 150 wins worldwide.
Karrie Webb’s First Senior Championship Title
The two Hall of Fame players felt the pressure of the competition as the game continued to advance, and they were tied at the final turn. However, Annika closed with a 69, not making a birdie the rest of the way and putting Karrie in the lead. The 2022 LPGA Senior Championship tournament offered Karrie Webb a challenging yet rewarding victory playing against a well-experienced rival— Annika Sorenstam. Despite the loud cheers for Annika and the reputation she carried throughout her many years dominating women’s professional golf, Karrie Webb persevered. She closed with a 5-under 67, for a four-shot victory over Annika Sorenstam. Karrie finished 14-under 202, winning her first senior title and a prize of $60,000.
Karrie Webb was pronounced the winner, later taking the stage with thanks and appreciation for her rewards and recognition. On the way to her first senior title, Webb knew she must play her best when Sorenstam sunk a first-hole eagle in the final round. Webb later told reporters, “It was kind of a ‘game-on’ moment. Once that went in, I was like, ‘All right, here we go.’ I just knew I had to play my best golf.”
Congratulations to Karrie Webb from everyone at ON Advertising!
