Angela Stanford turned 45 in November, which qualified her to play in some of the major senior events. Yesterday, in her first start on the senior circuit, she
won the Senior LPGA Championship, shooting a bogey-free final round 65.
It was a similar story to when she won her LPGA major in France a few years ago. She contended, finished strong, and then benefitted from another player's collapse. On the final hole, Stanford was 4 back of Trish Johnson. Stanford made birdie, which seemed meaningless until Johnson triple-bogeyed 17. Johnson then bogeyed 18 as well to hand Stanford the title.
As they say, it's not how, it's how many. Congrats to Angela on adding a senior major to her long list of accomplishments.
