Coming off of her second season on the LPGA Tour, Cheyenne Woods looks to step up to the plate and challenge a strong field at the forthcoming Omega Dubai Ladies Masters at Emirates Golf Club from December 7-10.<\/p>\n

With sporting prowess running in the family, the niece of Tiger Woods has already carved her own identity beyond sharing a celebrated surname by winning the Ladies European Tour\u2019s Australian Masters in 2014 and securing full playing status on the demanding LPGA Tour.<\/p>\n

Known for bringing power, flair and exuberance to the game, Cheyenne will ratchet up the level of excitement when she joins a field headlined by defending champion Shanshan Feng in her second appearance in the event, promoted and organised by \u2018golf in DUBAi.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel I have progressed, and my game has got much better after playing on the LPGA Tour,\u201d said the 26-year-old, who finished tied 24th on five-under par in her first Omega Dubai Ladies Masters in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love Dubai, I love the tournament and it was great fun playing two years ago. Dubai is exactly like what I had imagined \u2013 everything is over the top, everything is so beautiful,\u201d said the American, whose second season on the LPGA Tour this year is highlighted by tied sixth finish at the Cambia Portland Classic in June.<\/p>\n

Cheyenne followed in the footsteps of her famous uncle when she recreated the iconic images of golf shots flying from the helipad at the top of the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah in Dubai in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s a little surreal to know that Tiger was there 12 years ago in the same spot. It’s beautiful. I had seen the photos of Tiger atop the helipad, but for me it was even crazier,” she said, who enjoyed a decorated amateur career, winning over 30 tournaments, before turning pro in 2012.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ultimate goal is to have a successful career, to be a champion, to be No 1 in the world. No one wants to play to be second,\u201d added the Phoenix native, who fired a career-best 63 in the first round of the 2015 LPGA Manulife Classic in Ontario.<\/p>\n

Mohamed Juma Buamaim, vice-chairman and CEO of \u2018golf in DUBAi,\u2019 said: \u201cWe are delighted to welcome back a player who is a great ambassador for women\u2019s golf and a tremendous role model so many young girls.<\/p>\n

\u201cCheyenne is someone who has real enthusiasm for the game and has shown if you put your mindset on your goals, you go out and invariably achieve them. Her presence certainly elevate the energy of the competition,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201dI wish her the best and hope she has a wonderful stay in Dubai.\u201d<\/p>\n
