Stacy Lewis Makes Sponsor Happy by Winning Mizuno Classic
She did it again! Stacy Lewis won for the 4th time in 2012 by winning the LPGA’s Mizuno Classic in Japan – a tournament sponsored by her very happy golf club sponsor Mizuno. This time, Lewis shot a final round 64 that included 10 birdies and finished with birdies on the last three holes to come from 7 shots back to win by 1. She now has a virtually insurmountable lead in the LPGA Player of the Year (PoY) race with two tournaments remaining. Should Lewis win the PoY award, she would become the first American player to win that award in 18 years.
