Kelly Cap to make 3rd appearance

VIENNA -- Youngstown golfer Kelly Cap will be making her third appearance in the Giant Eagle LPGA Classic this week at Squaw Creek Country Club.
Cap, the Boardman High graduate, is in her fourth season on the LPGA Tour, but with non-exempt status she has had problems this season getting into tournaments.
This week will be only the fourth tournament she has played in this season. She was competing this week in the Canadian Women's Open in Niagara Falls, Canada.
Background
Cap, who was a four-time Division III All-American at Methodist College, had her career best tournament last month when she finished tied for 27th place at the ShopRite LPGA Classic in Absecon, N.J., and won $10,110 which doubled her career earnings on tour.
Cap also completed in the LPGA Corning Classic in Corning, N.Y., but failed to make the cut.
Her career earnings are $17,013 of which $12,841 have come from the two years that she has played in the ShopRite event.
In Cap's two previous efforts in the Giant Eagle LPGA Classic, she has failed to make the cut in either 2001 or 2003.
Cap, who spent four seasons full-time on the Futures Tour and still plays there occasionally, didn't qualify for the LPGA Tour until her fourth attempt at qualifying school.
In each of her two previous full seasons on tour she has failed to win enough money to keep her playing card and was forced to return to qualifying school.
Cap, who didn't begin playing golf until she was 16, led Boardman High to the 1990 Ohio state championship.
