Going into Sunday’s singles at the year—ending LPGA event, the two teams were locked at 6—6 and it remained tight throughout the day, coming down to the last hole. With the other players safely home, Japan’s Namika Omata and Kim found themselves at the 18th with the Internationals needing half a point to clinch the championship and give Annika Sorenstam a fitting send—off into retirement. Both players safely made the green with Kim having two putts to ensure she halved the hole to hand victory to her team, which she calmly did. Sorenstam, playing her last ever round of LPGA golf before retiring, was first out against Asian captain Pak Se—Ri and set the tone. Bogeys at the opening two holes put Pak on the back foot and she never recovered, eventually crashing 3 and 2 as Sorenstam sunk birdies on the 13th, 14th and 15th. It was a glorious personal end to Sorenstam’s LPGA career, but less memorable for Pak who failed to win any of her three matches at the tournament. Veteran Helen Alfredsson, 43, capped her best season ever with a comfortable 3 and 2 win over US Open champion Park In—Bee after taking the lead on the third hole and never surrendering. It gave the Internationals a two point cushion but it didn’t last long. America’s Nicole Castrale needed to sink an eight foot putt to keep it all square going to the last against the experienced Sarah Lee in her match, but she missed to give her opponent the lead for the first time. The Korean wrapped it up on the 18th before seeing her compatriot Choi Na—Yeon draw Asia level with a crushing 3 and 2 win over International vice—captain Paula Creamer. On a day of top—notch golf, Norway’s Suzann Petterson holed a 12 foot putt at the last for an eagle to halve her match against Taiwan’s world number two Yani Tseng. Korea’s Kim Song—Hee then came from behind to beat America’s Cristie Kerr 1 up, relying on slice of luck on the 18th when her approach shot hit the roof of the grandstand before rolling onto the edge of the green. In another tight finish, England’s Karen Stupples halved with Ji Eun—Hee. With Australia’s Katherine Hull narrowly beating Jang Jeong 1 up and Angela Stanford cruising past Lee Seon—Hwa 4 and 3, the Internationals were 12—10 in front with only half a point needed to win. Candie Kung’s 3 and 2 win over Australia’s Nikki Campbell took it to 12—11 before the last hole drama. — AFP/so Email Story IM Story Printable View Blog This Recommend this article Average (0 votes) Sign in to recommend this article » Most Recommended Stories » Related Articles: Singapore Tiong Bahru bird corner near Link Hotel reopensChannel NewsAsia - 30 minutes ago Jiangsu Party Secretary Liang Baohua calls on PM LeeChannel NewsAsia - 40 minutes ago MOH expects total number of HIV cases in 2008 to exceed 2007 figureChannel NewsAsia - 52 minutes ago Terror attack victim’s body flown back to SingaporeChannel NewsAsia - 1 hour 2 minutes ago Aviation shifts into new era with opening of S’pore—KL routeChannel NewsAsia - 1 hour 23 minutes ago Enlarge Photo Golf: Team International beat Team Asia to win Lexus Cup Most Popular – Singapore Viewed World's oldest person dies at 115 years Saudi king says 75 dollar oil price 'fair' Love handles increase death risk: study Michael Jackson strikes 'amicable' deal with Arab sheikh At least 381 dead after Nigeria clashes: witness View Complete List » Search: Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Top Stories Most Popular
