April 1 (Reuters) – South Korea’s Yoo Sun-young rolled in a
15-foot birdie putt on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff
to beat compatriot Kim In-kyung and win the Kraft Nabisco
Championship on Sunday.
Yoo, who tied Kim at nine-under-par 279 after 72 holes,
birdied the par-five 18th at Mission Hills Country Club in
Rancho Mirage, California, to claim her first major title.
Kim squandered a chance to win the first women’s major of
the year in regulation when she missed a one-foot par putt at
the final hole.
