Yuri Fudo and Shiho Oyama have been guaranteed spots at next month's U.S. LPGA Championship, the second major tournament of the year on the tour, the Ladies Professional Golfers' Association of Japan said Wednesday.
The two players earned the spots in the June 8-11 tournament at Bulle Rock Golf Course in Havre de Grace, Maryland, as Fudo stood at sixth and Oyama 11th on the world rankings as of Monday.
Fudo won the money title in Japan the previous six years and Oyama has won two events so far this season and is at the top of the JLPGA money list.
