Thompson wins Ochoa Invitational

American teenager Lexi Thompson birdied the final hole on Sunday to beat Stacy Lewis by one stroke at the US LPGA’s Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Guadalajara, Mexico.

Lewis had a chance to force a playoff but missed her birdie attempt. Thompson, 18, notched her third LPGA tour title. She had claimed her second in Malaysia last month, ending the two-year dry spell since her first triumph in 2011 when she was 16 years old. Thompson had four birdies and one bogey in a 3-under 69, and finished with a 16-under par total of 272. Lewis was alone in second after a 68 for 273, and South Korea’s Ryu So-yeon was third after a 69 for 275. South Korea’s world No. 1 Park In-bee wrapped up LPGA Player of the Year honors with her fourth-placed finish, firing a 69 for 277.
