Miyazato wins 2nd Evian Masters
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 25 - 07 - 2011

Japan's Ai Miyazato completed a stunning weekend performance to claim her second Evian Masters in three years Sunday.
After a bogey-free 67 in the third round, the 26-year-old followed up with a 70 to win by two shots on 15-under par 273 from American Stacy Lewis.
The 26-year-old joins Sweden's Annika Sorenstam and England's Laura Davies as a two-time winner – Swede Helen Alfredsson is the only player to have won the title three times.
Lewis, with a 70, finished in outright second place on 13 under par with fellow-American Angela Stanford (71), Japan's Miki Saiki (71) and South Korean Kim In-kyung (70) tied for third on 12 under. Hong was another shot back after a 72.
Noren wins title
Home favorite Alexander Noren battled freak winds as he cruised to a seven-shot victory at the Scandinavian Masters Sunday.
Noren's five-over-par 77 gave him a 72-hole total of 15-under 273, with Briton Richard Finch (69) alone in second place on 280 after shooting the day's only round in the 60s as players struggled in the testing conditions.
Compatriot Niklas Lemke (73) finished in third on five-under 283, while American world number seven Dustin Johnson (74) ended tied-sixth on 285 with countryman Bubba Watson (78) and two others.
Van Pelt to end drought
Bo Van Pelt, who is gunning for his second career USPGA Tour title, fired a five-under 65 for a one-shot lead over hometown favorite Adam Hadwin after the third round of the Canadian Open.
Hadwin, who grew up just an hour's drive away from Vancouver in Abbotsford, shot a two-under 68 and is alone in second place at four-under 206. Argentina's Andres Romero (67) and first-round leader Kris Blanks (69) shared third at three-under 207 after another bruising day in the thick rough at the tree-lined Shaughnessy course. American John Daly four-putted No. 18 for triple-bogey Friday but rebounded with a solid 67 Saturday. He was in a group of four at two-under with Sean O'Hair (66) and Australians Aron Price (69) and Geoff Ogilvy (70) as just 11 players are under par heading into Sunday's final round.
