Lin takes CLPGA Ningbo event

Chinese Taipei's Lin Tzu-chi captured the Ningbo Challenge on Saturday, redeeming herself in a second-hole playoff win over Yang Taoli from the Chinese mainland after squandering a five-shot lead going into the final round of the China LPGA Tour event.

Playing in cold, windy, wet and at times sunny conditions over the Ningbo Orient Golf Club on the Zhejiang province coast, US Futures Tour regular Lin (pictured) stumbled to a five-over 77, as Yang closed with an even-par 72.

Both players finished 54-holes of regulation play at 6-under 210 in the 500,000 yuan ($80,570) tournament.
