Se Ri Pak beats Jenny Chuasiriporn in a playoff
"For the first time, the Women's Open championship would be decided in sudden death. ... Chuasiriporn
had [a] chance right away but left a 60-yard pitch 30 feet short at the par-5 10th to again let Pak off the
hook. 'I could feel it slipping away,' Chuasiriporn admitted afterward. On the second extra hole she took
a strong run at an uphill 20-footer, but when she missed, 'I really had a sixth sense she was going to
make hers.' Always trust a woman's intuition. Pak drilled home her longest putt of the day, an 18-footer,
to become the youngest woman to win two majors in one year."
