Inbee Park will not compete in the 77th U.S. Women’s Open at Pine Needles. The two-time U.S. Women’s Open winner has withdrawn from the event in Southern Pines, North Carolina, along with this week’s Bank of Hope LPGA Match Play event.
Park’s manager told Golfweek that she’s taking off a few weeks to get back into top form and will decide on an upcoming schedule soon. The seven-time major winner finished T-16/T-3 in recent back-to-back events in Los Angeles and is currently No. 9 in the world. Park tied for fourth when the USWO was last held at Pine Needles in 2007.
