Hokie ClubBELMONT, Mich. – Former Virginia Tech women's golfer Keera Foocharoen tied for 73rd with a 1-over 289 at the Meijer LPGA Classic, which concluded Sunday. It marked the first time a Hokie competed and made the cut at an LPGA event.
The four-day, 72-hole event was contested at Blythefield Country Club in Belmont, Michigan. The Thailand native fired rounds of 71, 71, 70 and 77.
Lilia Vu (-16) won the Meijer LPGA Classic in a three-hole playoff.
