Kapalua Classic Sunday: Pressel Chases Down Pettersen

Congratulations to Morgan Pressel for her comeback victory over Suzann Pettersen in the final round of the 1st playing of the tournament she hosts, the Kapalua Classic. Pettersen made 4 birdies in her last 5 holes on the front to charge out to a big lead, but Pressel made 2 birdies in the last 3 holes of each side to first pull within 2 strokes of Pettersen and then overtake her. Huge win for the struggling Junior Mint!

Busy day today, so I'll let LPGA.com and Jaymes Song take it from here for now.
