Yani Tseng of South Korea won the LPGA Corning Classic by one shot over Soo-Yun Kang and Paula Creamer on Sunday. Tseng shot a 5-under 67 for an overall 21-under 267 and claimed her second career victory when Kang missed a 3-foot par putt on the final hole. Tseng birdied No. 17 to tie Kang at 21 under after Creamer had made a dramatic run to 20 under with a closing 65. Japanese rookie Mika Miyazato (70) finished alone in fourth at 19 under, while Song-Hee Kim (67) of South Korea, Ai Miyazato (68) of Japan, Sandra Gal (69) of Germany and Vicky Hurst (69) were another shot back. The Corning Classic, the lone event on the LPGA Tour with the same title sponsor and held at the same venue since its inception, ends a 31-year run at Corning Country Club, the victim of the depressed economy.
