PENDLETON – Two local golfers will tee off against Epson Tour regulars during the 2024 Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic at the Wildhorse Resort & Casino’s Golf Course Aug. 16-18.
Returning to Pendleton for the third year in a row, the official qualifying tour of the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) event begins Aug. 16 and will feature top women golfers from around the world as they compete for a slot on the LPGA tour in 2025. This year, however, Haley Greb of Pendleton and Gabby Lemieux of Caldwell, Idaho, will be in the field of players.
“Attendees at the 2024 Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic will have two local golfers to cheer on in the competition this year – Haley Greb and Gabby Lemieux,” Wildhorse Resort & Casino CEO Gary E. George said. “We are excited to welcome golfers and fans from around the world to Pendleton for this year’s event and look forward to cheering on these local competitors as well.”
Greb grew up in Pendleton and competed on the Pendleton High School golf team for four years. She was a member of the University of Tulsa women’s golf team before turning pro in 2023 and competing on the ANNIKA Women’s All Pro Tour. Greb also serves as a professional golf instructor in Park City, Utah.
After the 2024 Wildhorse Ladies Golf Classic, Greb will travel to Palm Springs, California, home of the first stage of the LPGA Qualifying School.
“I look forward to the opportunity to represent my hometown,” Greb said.
Lemieux, who has also competed under the name Gabby Barker, grew up in Caldwell where she also excelled in volleyball, tennis, soccer and basketball. She played alongside her sister on their high school golf team and then played at Texas Tech University where she earned Big 12 Player of the Year honors and was ranked No. 1 in the country.
She was a top contender on the Epson Tour in 2021 and 2022 and is the country’s first female Native American professional golfer.
