Tournament Information
Meldrum Wins In Virginia, Becomes Third ’09 Canadian Champ
Lisa Meldrum became the third Canadian to win on the 2009 Duramed
FUTURES Tour today when she captured her first Tour title at the
$100,000 iMPACT Classic.
The quiet champion not only grabbed her first professional
title Stateside, but she broke free from a crowded leaderboard and
posted a final-round score of 5-under 67 to finish at 208 (-8) at
Richmond Country Club.
Tied for second at 209 (-7) was the trio of Gerina Mendoza
(68) of Roswell, N.M., Song Yi Choi (69) of Seoul, South Korea, and
Pernilla Lindberg (73) of Bollnas, Sweden.
“It feels unbelievable,” said Meldrum, 27, a fourth-year
professional from Montreal, Quebec, who jumped from 45th to
15th on the Tour’s season money list. “I expected to be in a
playoff and I was preparing for that. My heart was pounding a little
fast on the last hole, so when I finished, I just went up to the
practice green and waited.”
