LPGA of Japan – ARIMURA WINS STANLEY LADIES GOLF TOURNAMENT

Chie Arimura has captured her second title of the season by winning the Stanley Ladies Golf Tournament.; Winner of the Crystal Geyser Ladies in May, Arimura made two birdies in a bogey free 34 in a final round shortened to nine holes because of fog at Tomei Country Club to finish on 12 under par 68.  She started the final round with a three shot lead and felt she could hold on to win when she holed a par saving putt on the 12th .  “That par save made me believe birdies were ahead of me and left no doubt about victory,” Arimura said.  She went ahead and birdied holes 13 and 15.
