Pimpadsorn captures CTBC Ladies Open in playoff

PIMPADSORN Sangkagaro captured her first China LPGA Tour victory yesterday when the Thai ace beat Chinese Taipei amateur Cheng Ssu-chia in a playoff at the CTBC Ladies Open in Taipei.

With both players deadlocked at even-par 216 after 54 holes, Pimpadorn (70), a two-time winner on the Thai domestic circuit this year, ended it with a par on the third extra hole, the par-5 18th. Needing a five-foot putt to prolong the playoff, the 16-year-old Cheng could only watch as her ball lipped the edge of the cup and stayed out. Hsu Wei-ling of Chinese Taipei finished third after closing with a 74, three shots back. Fellow islanders Chien Pei-yun (76), Tsai Pei-yung (76) and amateur Chang Ya-chun (73) were equal fourth, tied with Thai Saraporn Chamchoi (71).
