Hee Young Park of South Korea is congratulated by Angela Stanford for her victory in a three hole playoff over Stanford during the fourth round of the Manulife Financial LPGA Classic at the Grey Silo Golf Course in Waterloo, Canada.
Hee Young Park made a move in the Rolex Rankings this week moving up 16 spots to No. 22 with her win at the Manulife Financial LPGA Classic.
South Korea’s Hee Young Park outlasted American Angela Stanford in a three-hole playoff to earn her second-career LPGA Tour victory. It was Park’s first-career playoff appearance and birdied the third playoff hole to seal the win, her first since the 2011 CME Group Titleholders.
Angela Stanford moved up three spots to No. 16 with her second place finish. Stanford also earned top American honors for the second-straight week after a T4 finish at the U.S. Women’s Open two weeks ago. Stanford earned 30 points with her runner-up finish and stays in fourth place on the points list with 381.
