First player since 1966 to win consecutive season-opening events

SINGAPORE - Japan's Ai Miyazato shot 69 in the final round of the third-annual HSBC Women's Champions to win the second-consecutive event of the 2010 LPGA season. The 24-year-old's 72-hole tally of 10-under-par 278 was two shots better than Cristie Kerr, who finished alone in second at 8-under-par 280. With the victory, Miyazato becomes the first player since LPGA Founder Marilynn Smith in 1966, a span of 44 years, to win consecutive season-opening events.

"I feel honored to be among those great winners," Miyazato said of past HSBC winners Lorena Ochoa and Jiyai Shin. "This is obviously a great start for me, but the LPGA is such a tough Tour, and it's also very tough to keep winning."
