England\u2019s Jodi Ewart Shadoff claimed her first LPGA Tour title with a wire-to-wire victory at the Mediheal Championship in Somis, California.<\/p>\n

Having entered the final day at The Saticoy Club with a four-shot lead, a nervous start left the 34-year-old with plenty of work to do to claim her maiden tour title.<\/p>\n

But after splitting two bogeys with a birdie on the front nine, Ewart Shadoff was able to pick up shots on the 12th and 14th holes to regain her advantage headed into the home stretch.<\/p>\n

She then held her nerve on the run home, with four straight pars and a round of 71 enough to claim victory with an overall score of 15 under.<\/p>\n

Ewart Shadoff said on lpga.com: \u201cIt\u2019s a little bit surreal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t know if this moment would ever come. I\u2019m just really grateful for everybody who\u2019s on my team.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast year was really hard. I\u2019m standing here because of them.<\/a> I\u2019m just really grateful.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

Japan\u2019s Yuka Saso finished runner-up on 14 under, while Ewart Shadoff\u2019s compatriot Georgia Hall finished tied for third on 13 under.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
