ROGERS, Ark. Chad Pinder Jersey . -- Stacy Lewis made a 7-foot birdie putt on the final hole Sunday in the NW Arkansas Championship to finally win an official event in her adopted state. The top-ranked Lewis, the Texan who played at the nearby University of Arkansas, earned an unofficial win in the rain-shortened 2007 tournament as an amateur. On Sunday, she closed with a 6-under 65 for a one-stroke victory. Lewis birdied three of her final holes for her third LPGA Tour victory of the year and 11th overall. She finished at 12-under 201 at Pinnacle Country Club. Lydia Ko, Cristie Kerr and Angela Stanford tied for second. Ko finished with a 65, and Kerr and Stanford shot 67. Second-round leader Michelle Wie shot a 73 to tie for eighth at 8 under. Kerr had a chance to match Lewis at 12 under with a 30-foot birdie putt on the 18th. However, her putt came up short. Then, after So Yeon Ryu failed to make an eagle on the final hole, Lewis win was secured. Ryu ended up fifth at 10 under after a 69. Lewis won the Shoprite Classic this month as well as the North Texas Shootout in May. The two-time major winner has long said, though, how much pressure she felt to win in Arkansas -- where she was a four-time All-American in college and is greeted throughout rounds by calls of "Woo Pig Sooie." She was tied for the lead entering the final round last year before finishing in a tie for fourth, but her final birdie spree finally secured her sought-after win Sunday. Wie began the final round with a two-shot lead after back-to-back 5-under 66s, but she missed short birdie putts on the first two holes and struggled to a 1-over front nine -- capped by a three-putt bogey on the ninth. The whirlwind media tour following last weeks win at the U.S. Womens Open appeared to finally catch up after that with Wie, who followed with bogeys on Nos. 10 and 11 to effectively end her contention. She finished with 35 putts after needing 28 the first round and 29 in the second. With Wie coming back to the field, several players climbed up the leaderboard and into contention on the back nine -- with Lewis, Ko, Kerr and Stanford part of a four-way tie atop the leaderboard at one point. Lewis began the tournament 2 over after her first four holes Friday, but she closed by shooting 14 under over her final 68 holes. She took advantage of the opening with Wies stumble and vaulted into the solo lead at 11 under with a birdie on the par-4 16th. Ko and Kerr answered with birdies to climb back to part of a three-way tie at 11 under, but Lewis had the last answer -- a 7-foot left-to-right birdie putt on No. 18 that resulted in a huge ovation from the pro-Arkansas gallery and a fist pump and sigh of relief from Lewis. Lewis putted 25 times Sunday, a day after needing only 24 putts in the second round. Chella Choi briefly was tied for the lead early in the round after a hole-in-one on the 166-yard par-3 sixth hole. She finished with a 69 to tie for sixth at 9 under. Blake Treinen Jersey .S. international midfielder Michael Bradley is complete. Glenn Hubbard Jersey . Summers has seen scant playing time with the Coyotes since being selected 29th overall by the club in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, having played in 47 career NHL games.Like a well-oiled machine that couldnt be stopped, Team Canada continued its dominance over Team Europe Sunday morning, sweeping the three skins matches to clinch victory in the 2015 World Financial Group Continental Cup. Canada then won two of the three evening matches for good measure. In a race to 30.5 points, Canada entered Sundays draws with a 22-8 lead, needing just 8.5 points to win the event — which it did in Draw 10 by claiming 10.5 points. Canada then added another 9.5 points in Draw 11 to finish the four-day competition with a 42-18 advantage. When Niklas Edins long runback try came up wide, giving Mike McEwen the full point that guaranteed Canadas victory, non-playing members cheering on the bench swarmed over the boards to ignite an on-ice victory celebration that temporarily halted the two other games still in process. We could kind of see the other matches going well and the timing just worked out for that to happen, McEwen said of posting the clinching point. It was kind of cool to put that final blow on the board. And he, like the fans in the stands, was surprised to see his teammates storm onto the ice. Yeah because theres those huge LED signs and theyve been ragging on us, Do Not Jump Over These, he said with a smile. So it was kind of cool that nobody listened. In the end McEwen beat Edin 3.5 to 1.5, the identical scores to Rachel Homans win over Margaretha Sigfridsson and the Pat Simmons-skipped mixed team victory over the European foursome skipped by Torger Nerg?rd of Norway. Teams play eight-end games in the skins competition, scoring points by counting two or more with last rock, or one point or more without. The ffirst six ends are each worth half a point with the final two ends worth one point each. Oakland Athletics Jerseys. While McEwen, third B.J. Neufeld, second Matt Wozniak and lead Ben Hebert posted the clinching point, it was the Simmons-led team of Lori Olson-Johns, Carter Rycroft and Rachelle Brown who got the team fired up early. Normally the third on the John Morris-skipped Team Canada, Simmons was handed the skip spot for the mixed skins game and he made two McEwen-like shots in the second and fourth ends to win full-point carryover skins to put Canada in position to clinch the cup before this afternoons final round of skins. Crazy, wasnt it? replied Team Canada coach Rick Lang when asked about the Simmons performance. Pat came through in spades and kind of got the spirit going today. Put us on the board early and everyone followed. But, added Lang, it was a solid team performance from Thursdays opening draw that ultimately led to victory. We had six teams right at the top of their games; extremely well prepared, excited to be here and committed to the effort, he said. We had no weak links in our chain, whatsoever. In the evening draws, Brad Jacobs of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. beat Great Britains Dave Murdoch 4-1 in a rematch of the gold-medal matchup from the Sochi Olympics while Winnipegs Jennifer Jones played Scotlands Eve Muirhead to a 2.5 tie. You could tell we were sharp from the get-go, said Jones. And we never let up. It was coming together as a team, getting that camaraderie and great energy. And we had that from day one. We got on a roll and never looked back. Canada also edged Europe 3-2 in the evenings mixed team competition. Cheap France Jerseys Authentic Cheap Zambia Soccer Jerseys Cheap Wales Soccer Jerseys Cheap Venezuela Soccer Jerseys Cheap Uruguay Soccer Jerseys Cheap Ukraine Soccer Jerseys Cheap Turkey Soccer Jerseys Cheap Switzerland Soccer Jerseys Cheap Sweden Soccer Jerseys Cheap Spain Soccer Jerseys Cheap South Africa Soccer Jerseys Cheap Slovakia Soccer Jerseys Cheap Singapore Soccer Jerseys Cheap Senegal Soccer Jerseys Cheap Saudi Arabia Soccer Jerseys Cheap Russia Soccer Jerseys Cheap Romania Soccer Jerseys Cheap Portugal Soccer Jerseys Cheap Poland Soccer Jerseys Cheap Peru Soccer Jerseys ' ' '
