                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 26, 2006

  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the superior 
performance of 20-year old Brittany Lang, during the Wegmans Ladies 
Professional Golf Association Tour.
  Ms. Lang, a resident of McKinney, TX, was a runner-up in the U.S. 
Women's Open as an amateur a year ago. On Sunday, June 25, 2006, she 
briefly held the lead at the Wegmans LPGA tournament. Lang shot a 71 
and tied for third after starting the day one shot off the lead. This 
was her first top 3 finish and her second top 10 finish of the 10 
events she has competed in thus far in her career.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with great honor that I stand here today to honor 
Brittany Lang for her achievements on the golf course. She serves as an 
example of athletic excellence to the young women of our community. I 
wish her all the best in her future endeavors.
