LAS VEGAS - UNLV women's golfer Natasha Krishna will play in her first career professional tournament next month when she plays in the We Love Kobe Suntory Open, which is an event on the Japan LPGA tour.

Krishna will be competing under a special invitation extended to New Zealand Golf, and the tournament will be June 7-10 at the Rokko Kokusai Golf Club in Hyogo, Japan. Krishna just wrapped up her freshman year with the Rebels and she was second on the team with a 74.6 scoring average on her way to earning All-Mountain West Conference honors.

This will be the second international event for Krishna this past year, as she played in the 29th Queen Sirikit Cup, which was played in the Philippines on March 21-23. Krishna was part of the New Zealand team, which finished fourth at the event.
