have been published so far, the most notable qualifiers are Brian Gay and Dudley Hart, who

Kellogg-Keebler Classic
Aurora, Illinois
June 4-6, 2004 |
| Webb wins her 30th LPGA title |
|
| Karrie Webb won her 30th LPGA title at the Kellogg-Keebler
Classic by five shots from the runner-up trio of Annika Sorenstam, Jeong Jang and Siew-Ai
Lim. Webb's bogey-free, 5 under par round of 67 on Sunday gave her a 16-under-par total of
200. She entered the final round at 11-under-par and faced a charge from Sorenstam, who
was four shots back. In the end, Sorenstam's four birdies on the back nine gave her a
final-round 68 to finish at 11-under-par, but it was not enough to catch Webb. Lim posted
a career-low 66 in the final round to join Sorenstam and Jang in the tie for second, her
career-best finish. With this win, Karrie Webb became only the 17th player in LPGA
history to win 30 Tour events. |

Jim Thorpe won his eighth Champions Tour title and his first of 2004
despite taking a double bogey on the final hole of the Farmers Charity Classic. His 6
under par final round of 66 gave him a 203 total for a one shot victory over Fred Gibson
who also finished with a 66. Three players finished a shot further back tied for third
place. Gil Morgan (65), whose earnings here took him over $1million for 2004, Dave
Stockton (66) and Bob Gilder (71) who started the day as co-leader with Andy Bean. Bean
had to withdraw after passing out before the start of play. He was rushed to hospital as a
result of an allergic reaction to his breakfast and although he returned to the course
after a couple of hours, decided not to compete. Thorpe's earnings this week take him
past the career $10million mark, the 15th player on the Champions Tour to reach that
milestone. |
