- Cheyenne Knight scored a rare American success when she won the Volunteers of America Classic by two strokes in north Texas on Sunday.
LPGA Tour rookie Knight sank a tricky 12-foot birdie at the penultimate hole to preserve her lead and she subsequently beat out compatriots Brittany Altomare and Jaye Marie Green at the Old American Golf Club at The Colony. It was an unlikely victory by the local resident, who had support from a large gallery of supporting fans for a closing five-under-par 66.
With perfect timing, everything clicked in the same week as she responded to the pressure in style, posting an 18-under 266 total to secure her medium-term future.“I know he’s watching down from heaven,” a teary-eyed Knight said in a greenside interview.Knight joins Nelly Korda and Lexi Thompson as American winners this year, while Cydney Clanton partnered Thailand’s Jasmine Suwannapura to triumph at the Great Lakes Bay Invitational.
