Happy tiny Friday!

Then after the break, the gals swing through the shiny new Grant Thornton Invitational golf tournament, a first-of-its-kind mixed tourney that pairs LPGA and PGA stars together. Stick with El and Steph for everything you need to know on and off the links before the competition tees off tomorrow.
