Yang wins in Thailand

Associated Press

South Korea’s Amy Yang won the Honda LPGA Thailand in Chonburi for her second LPGA Tour title, finishing with a 3-under 69 for a two-stroke victory over American Stacy Lewis and two others.

Yang broke a tie with Lewis with a three-stroke swing on the par-4 15th. Yang made a short birdie putt on the hole, and Lewis had a double bogey after blasting a 67-yard wedge shot over the green. Yang bogeyed No. 16 and closed with two pars to finish at 15-under 273 on Siam Country Club’s Pattaya Old Course.

Lewis, the third-round leader, finished with a 72 to match Taiwan’s Yani Tseng and South Korea’s Mirim Lee at 13 under.

PGA Tour

What had been a marathon day at soggy PGA National suddenly turned into a sprint-to-the-finish this morning when the final round was to resume.

Ian Poulter was at 7-under par through seven holes at the Honda Classic, tied with Paul Casey, who went out in 31 and was in the left rough on the 10th hole when the final round was halted at sunset.

Patrick Reed, in the final group with Poulter, was one shot behind.
