LPGA Toto Japan Classic final scoreboard http://www.lpga.com/leaderboard
As if she wasn't popular enough before, 19 year old Nasa Hataoka has won the Toto Japan Classic 66 69 67 -14 by two shots and to the absolute joy of all golf fans in her country two other Japanese players T2.!
Saki Nagamine 68 68 68 -12 and Momoko Ueda 69 67 68 -12 made sure it was a banner day for Japanese golf. They were joined at -12 by Spain's Carlota Ciganda 68 68 68 -12.
Hataoka started the day four shots behind leader Minjee Lee who didn't bring her "A" game with a front nine at +7 43, good news for Hataoka, who played those holes in 36. Lee ended up with a 78.
The win was Hatoaka's 2nd of the year on the LPGA Tour.
Brooke Henderson who sent Canadian golf fans into a tizzy when she won the CP Canadian Women's Open earlier this year completed her Asian swing well down the field T41 69 72 73 -2.
