Kerr wins in Malaysia with birdie on last hole
CRISTIE Kerr holed a 35-foot birdie putt on the final hole yesterday for an even-par 71 and a one-shot victory at the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia.
Kerr was in a four-way tie for the lead until her big putt made her the 27th player in LPGA Tour history with 20 victories. She was so proud of her winning putt that while waiting for photographers to line up for the trophy presentation, she paced off the putt again at TPC Kuala Lumpur. She won by one shot over defending champion Feng Shanshan of China and fellow Americans Danielle Kang and Jacqui Concolino. The 40-year-old became the first player in her 40s to win on the LPGA since Scot Catriona Matthew won the Lorena Ochoa Invitational in 2011 at age 42. Kerr, who won for the second time this year, finished at 15-under 269.
