配资评测网 Golfer Ji storms to wire-to-wire victory in Shanghai

Ji Yuai secured her second China LPGA Tour victory of the year配资评测网, winning the inaugural Fila Golf Women's Classic by two shots in challenging conditions.

BEIJING, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- In a rush to finish the final round before the arrival of Tropical Storm Bebinca, China's Ji Yuai held it together in the wild and windy conditions to close with an even-par 72 and win the inaugural Fila Golf Women's Classic by two shots here on Sunday.

Amateur Tang Rongze finished runner-up after posting an even-par 72 playing in the final group, while Cai Danlin was third at four shots back after a three-under 69.

Ji, who becomes the first two-time winner on the China LPGA Tour this year after having won the Tianjin Women's Open in April, put together a steady round in the difficult conditions that included three birdies, a double-bogey six at the 359-yard fourth hole, followed by a bogey at the par-three next.

"It's great to enter the winner club again. But I haven't lost my game since Tianjin. It's just one or two little troublesome things that blocked the way to the winner's podium. I was confident going into this week. Since the first birdie in the first round, I became increasingly confident," said Ji.

"With the weather prediction, I knew we didn't have many options. I prepared for the shotgun start. With the winning experience, I knew it was a long day. Anything could happen," she added.

Tang, who was gunning for her first win against a pro field, lamented a missed opportunity after being tied with Ji through five holes. Her round featured three birdies offset by three bogeys.

"This is not a great round. I had a steady start, but my iron play wasn't great. I didn't have much birdie chances配资评测网," said Tang, a 15-year-old from Qingdao. "This is my best finish on the China LPGA Tour, a great honor. But I can't help thinking that triumph was possible with a better score today." ■
