S Koreas Lee Captures Duramed Championship

BATAVIA, Ohio -- Seo-Jae Lee closed with a 3-under 69 Sunday to win the Duramed Championship, her first victory on the Duramed Futures Tour.

Lee, an 18-year-old Korean, played the final round at Stonelick Hills without a bogey. She finished three rounds at 15-under 201 for a three-shot win over two players.

The $14,000 first-place check more than doubled her rookie season earnings to $25,277 in nine events. Her previous best finish was a tie for third place at the Louisiana Pelican Classic.

Violeta Retamoza, who shared the overnight lead with Lee, had an even-par 72 Sunday and shared second place with Eunjung Yi (69) at 12-under 204. It was Retamoza’s second runner-up finish of the season.

Mollie Fankhauser fired a 9-under 63 to climb from a tie for 33rd place overnight into fourth place alone at 10-under 206. Cortney Reno (69) was another shot further back at 207.
