The LPGA Tour is headed to Virginia after the American team grabbed the trophy on their home ground last week. The third edition of the Kroger Queen City Championship is all set to kick off in a few hours. It will be hosted at TPC River’s Bend, which is its new official venue, from September 19 to September 22. Almost half of the players who were part of the field at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club are headed to Cincinnati for the LPGA event.
From World No. 1 Nelly Korda to gold medalist Lydia Ko, some of the greatest names will be part of the $2 million purse tournament. But will the weather be in their favor for the upcoming match?

The opening round, in all probability, will not be interrupted by Mother Nature. According to reports from Weather.com, there will be “mostly sunny skies. Winds light and variable.” This suggests that the weather will be pleasant in Ohio. The temperature is predicted to go as high as 88 degrees and as low as 58 degrees.
The UV Index during the day will be 6 of 11. What might cause a little irritation for both the players and the spectators is the level of humidity, which is predicted to be 57%. However, the winds blowing across the course due to the river should help balance out the humidity. The sun will rise at 7:22 am and set at 7:38 pm.
