Gina Kim and 19-year-old Yana Wilson combined to shoot an eight-under par 62 on Sunday to win the Dow Championship LPGA team event, a first title for both on the US women’s tour.<\/p>\n
The US duo were one off the lead after Saturday’s alternate-shot third round and combined for an eagle and six birdies in the best ball (four-ball) final round to leapfrog overnight leaders Choi Hye-jin and Kim Hyo-joo for a two-stroke triumph.<\/p>\n
