Pernilla LindbergA surprise late entry for the 2020 NZ Golf Open is sure to add intrigue. Swedish star Pernilla Lindberg will line up with the men during a wedding-anniversary holiday celebration in the Lakes district. She approached us when she realised our event was a week later and for her, it is about having fun. She will be playing off the same tees as the men, so it will be tough,” tournament director Michael Glading said. It’s all about having a great experience and enjoying everything New Zealand has to offer.”This will not be Lindberg’s first appearance in New Zealand; she finished second at the 2010 NZ Open.
