ROGERS — Two current and two former Arkansas women’s golfers will tee it up at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G at Pinnacle Country Club on Friday.

Armatures Maria Fassi and Dylan Kim join the field of LPGA Tour professionals including former Razorbacks Stacy Lewis and Gabriela Lopez for a weekend of golf and Calling the Hogs.

Fassi is taking part on a sponsor’s exemption for the second time in three years. Kim fought her way in via the Monday qualifier. Kim carded the second-best Razorback score on the course with a 6-under 65 to tie for the win and move on.

Lewis was the event’s first sponsor’s exemption in 2007. The Razorback All-American was the unofficial winner after shooting a 65 in the first round before play was rained out. Lewis won the event in 2014 with a three-round 201.

Lopez was a three-time sponsor’s exemption for Arkansas playing in the tournament in 2013, 2014 and 2015 as an amateur. She has made two other appearances after turning pro posting her best finish with a T-10th place last season.
