Laird holds off McIlroy to win the Valero...final scoring all tours..

Rory McIlroy fired a closing 66, but it wasn't quite enough to catch Scotland's Martin Laird..

Here is a full report as well as reports and live scoring to all other tours...



LPGA TOUR - KRAFT NABISCO CHAMPIONSHIP
COURSE: Mission Hills Country Club (6,738 yds, par 72)
PURSE: $2 million. Winner’s share: $300,000.

Round 4

lpgatour.com   Inbee Park took her three shot lead into the final round of the Kraft Nabisco Championship (@KNCGolf) and never looked back. The South Korean continued her putting prowess she exhibited all week at the Dinah Shore Tournament Course at Mission Hills Country Club and carded a 3-under 69 on Sunday en route to the four-stroke victory and her second-career major title. The win marks the third-straight South Korean to win an LPGA Tour major championship and fifth of the last seven.

No one came within four shots of Park throughout the day until fellow South Korean and close friend, Rolex Rankings No. 9 So Yeon Ryu (@1soyeonryu), birdied her final hole on No. 18 to post the low round of the week, a 7-under 65, to finish 11-under par for the tournament and runner-up honors.

Round 4

pgatour.com  Martin Laird has spent the last six months on the driving range looking for answers to his struggling game. The Scottish golfer finally found what he was looking for and then some on Sunday, winning the Valero Texas Open with a final-round 9-under 63 to hold off a resurgent Rory McIlroy and some of the world's best along the way

He punctuated the overall 14-under effort with birdies on the final three holes, earning a trip to next week's Masters and plenty of confidence in a recent swing change along the way

McIlroy, who only entered the tournament late last week, closed to within a shot of Laird when he sank a 13-foot birdie putt on the 204-yard par-3 16th to reach 11 under. He shot 66 to end up 2nd.

The former world No. 1 had struggled with his consistency for much of the year entering the week, but he made seven birdies on Sunday. It was exactly the kind of competitive final round McIlroy envisioned when he signed up in advance of next week's first major of the year.

He continued to struggle off the tee, hitting just seven of 14 fairways for the third time this week Sunday. However, he needed only 26 putts, by far his best effort on the greens for the week.

Round 4

Australian Wade Ormsby claimed a nerve-jangling maiden Asian Tour title at the Panasonic Open India to deny Thai veteran Boonchu Ruangkit from a historic victory at the Delhi Golf Club on Sunday.

Ormsby overcame a disastrous triple bogey on the third hole to shoot a final round one-under-par 71 to win the US$300,000 tournament by one stroke from the 56-year-old Boonchu, who was bidding to become the oldest winner on the region’s premier Tour.

The wire-to-wire win earned Ormsby’s the winner’s cheque of US$54,000 and moved him up to eighth place on the Order of Merit.

Final

Some people may have scoffed when Justin Lower said that NGA TOUR fields are so deep there could be 18 different winners this season. But with each passing event, Lower’s words only become more prophetic.

M.J. Daffue became the sixth different winner in six events this season by outlasting Sihwan Kim on Sunday afternoon in the NeSmith Chevrolet Classic at Sapelo Hammock Golf Club. The former Lamar University standout from Pretoria, South Africa, used a 4-under 67 in the final round to finish at 12-under par and earned his first victory on the NGA TOUR by single stroke over Kim

Final wrap

On a day only the BBC and the powers that be at the Open Championship could love, Cam Burke of New Hamburg, Ontario overcame a double-bogey on the first hole of his final round (and four consecutive bogeys to finish) to post a final-round 76 and earn his first professional title at the eGolf Tour’s inaugural Founders Club Classic at St. James Plantation.

The Founders Club Classic was the sixth of 24 scheduled events on the 2013 eGolf Tour schedule, and was contested this week at the Founders Club at St. James Plantation in Southport, NC.

Burke entered Thursday’s final round on the heels of a 69-69—138 (6-under) start to his week, and in possession of a one-shot lead over Carlos Sainz Jr. of Elgin, IL. From the outset, it was apparent that Mother Nature would play a role in the outcome of the tournament.

Steady overnight rains in the scenic coastal town gave way to a constant drizzle and occasional downpour on Thursday morning, which paired with a 20-30 mph wind to create some of the most difficult playing conditions in the eGolf Tour’s 12-year history..
