Pace wins rain-delayed Blue Bay LPGA

Tuesday, October 28 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    South Africa's Lee-Anne Pace has won the rain-shortened Blue Bay LPGA on Monday for her first LPGA Tour title and second worldwide victory in nine days.

    Script:

    A first LPGA title and a second worldwide victory in nine days, Lee-Anne Pace is living up to her name.

    Despite torrential rain delaying the Blue Bay LPGA in China, when play finally resumed on Monday, the South African continued her excellent form with the putter.

    On the 18th par 5, she sunk a six footer to finish at 16-under 200 and become only the second South African-born champion in LPGA Tour history, with Sally Little.

    SOUNDBITE: Lee-Anne Pace, South Africa, winner of the tournament

    "We had it last week already so I was prepared and I might have brought the rain, and sorry about that, but same thing last week, so I just thought it's the same for everybody and just go and enjoy."

    Caroline Masson from Germany had a five-under 67 in the final round and claimed the runner-up position with a 13 under in the 54-hole event, three strokes behind.

    The 33-year-old Pace won the South African Women's Open last week.

    The victory was her third in China, following the LET's Sanya Ladies Open in 2010 and 2013.
