The Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic has been shortened to a 54-hole event following overnight storms that dropped nearly a foot of rain on the Ocean Club Golf Course.

A world-class field will tee it up in Paradise this week at the inaugural Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic. The tournament, one of three new tournaments on the 2013 LPGA schedule, is a four-day, 72-hole stroke-play event with a $1.3 million purse and a $195,000 first-place check.

Just seven tournaments remain before the unveiling of the 2013 U.S. and European Solhiem Cup teams.

The LPGA has consistently conducted our official events in accordance with the Rules of Golf as established by the USGA and the R&A.
