Park Makes History with U.S. Open Win

by Maura Hutchinson

It was a weekend for the history books at Sebonak Golf Club.  South Korea’s Inbee Park became the first player to secure three major wins in a season since there have been at least four.
 
Starting the final round on Sunday four strokes ahead, Park birdied the 9th and 10th holes to extend her lead over second place finisher, I.K. Kim.  Capturing her second U.S. Open win in five years.
 
“It feels great to put my name on this trophy twice.  That just means so much,” Park said.
 
“It was a tough day out there. The golf course was playing tough. I tried to stay calm, and I think I did.  I really stayed calm out there, and I just didn't know what I was doing out there.  If I knew what I was doing (in terms of history), I think I wouldn't be able to stand.”
