Angela Stanford birdied four of the last six holes to win the LPGA Tour’s Volunteers of America Classic and snap a two-year victory drought with a two-stroke triumph. The 43-year-old American fired a four-under-par 67 in the final round to finish 72 holes at The Colony in suburban Dallas on seven-under 277.
South Koreans Park In-bee and Ryu So-Yeon and US teen rookie Yealimi Noh shared second on 279, the 54-hole co-leaders each shooting 70, with top-ranked Ko Jin-young of South Korea fifth on 280 after a closing 70.
World number 79 Stanford, from nearby Fort Worth, won a shootout in windy conditions, capturing her seventh LPGA Tour title and her first since she won her first major title at the 2018 Evian Championship.
