June 15, 2015 | Women's Golf
Irvine, Calif. -- Former UC Irvine women's golfer Jada (Lalita) Patipaksiri will compete on Golf Channel's Altered Course beginning tonight (June 15) at 6:00 p.m. PT.
Altered Course is an "extreme golf" show where teams race against the clock on non-traditional holes that challenge contestants using a variety of scoring formats.
Patipaksiri is on the Frenemies team with former UC Riverside player Amelia Ek. The duo is one of eight teams vying for more than $100,000 in cash and prizes.
Patipaksiri played for UCI from 2009-12. As a senior, she was named first-team All-Big West after recording three top 10 finishes and leading the Anteaters with a 75.17 scoring average. The scholar-athlete was a member of the Anteater team that went to the NCAA Championship in 2009.
Patipaksiri's UCI teammate Selaneé Henderson finished second on the Golf Channel's reality show Big Break Atlantis in 2012.
