Wilson tops Lehman at International

Now Dean Wilson can be known for something other than being Annika Sorenstam’s playing partner.

The 36-year-old Hawaiian, paired with Sorenstam when she became the first woman in 58 years to play on the PGA Tour at the 2003 Colonial, earned his first win on tour Sunday.

He birdied the second hole of a sudden-death playoff in the International at Castle Pines in Castle Rock, Colo., topping Tom Lehman, who was trying to become the first Ryder Cup captain to win a PGA Tour event during his term since Jack Nicklaus won the Masters in 1986.

Wilson, whose previous best finish was a tie for third at the Texas Valero Open, said playing with Sorenstam “was a great experience. But that’s what I always kept telling myself: ‘Dang it, I got to win a tournament so I can be known for something else.”’

“Finally got my Tour card here just four years ago at age 32,” Wilson said. “So it was quite a battle. It is just really satisfying to be here holding the trophy.”

Canadian Women’s Open

Cristie Kerr overcome an eight-stroke deficit to hand Angela Stanford a crushing loss for the second time in three months, shooting a bogey-free 7-under 65 for a one-stroke victory in the Canadian Women’s Open in London, Ontario.

Kerr, who came from four strokes back to beat Stanford in May in the Franklin American Mortgage Championship in Tennessee, finished with a 12-under 276 total on the London Hunt and Country Club course. She earned $255,000 for her eighth career win.

Scandinavian TPC

Annika Sorenstam birdied the last hole for an 8-under 65 to tie the lowest score on her home course and edge Lorena Ochoa by one shot to win the Scandinavian TPC in Stockholm, Sweden.

The Swede finished with a 21-under 271 total at the Bro-Balsta course, where she began playing golf when she was 12. Ochoa, ranked second in the world behind Sorenstam, closed with a 66.
