This lifesized sculpture of professional golfer Lorena Ochoa Reyes depicts her taking a wide swing. Unfortunately, although this work was only unveiled in December 2013, the golf club had already been broken off by the time this Waymark was submitted December 29, 2013.
The artist is Octavio Gonzalez Gutierrez.
