Welch's/Fry's Championship, Randolph North Golf Complex, Tucson,
Arizona |
| After five years on the LPGA Tour, Karen Stupples has recorded her first
Tour victory and what a way to do it. Her four round total of 258, 22 strokes underpar is
the all time LPGA lowest score. She started the final day one shot ahead of Grace Park and
fellow Englishwoman, Laura Davies. She maintained that lead for the first 12 holes and
then eagled the 13th to start pulling away, finishing 5 strokes clear of Park and Jung
Yeon Lee who both ended on 263. Laura Davies shot a one over par 71 on the final day to
drop back to a share of fifth place. Stupples had warmed up well for the start of the
season by finishing second to Annika Sorenstam two weeks ago in Australia at the ANZ
Ladies Masters. Sorenstam holds the LPGA record for the lowest score on a par-72 course
with 261 over 4 days. |
