Hee Young Park (South Korean) won the CME Group Titleholders on Sunday for her first career LPGA title.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Park<\/strong>, with a closing 70, finished at 9-under-par 279 to beat Paula Creamer and Sandra Gal by two shots at Grand Cypress Resort. Another shot back were Na Yeon Choi and world No. 2 Suzann Pettersen. Michelle Wie, Cristie Kerr and world No. 1 Yani Tseng, trying to win for the 12{+t}{+h} time this season, made brief runs at the championship before finishing in a tie for sixth, seven shots behind.<\/p>\n

“That’s awesome playing on this course, and playing against all the big names out there,” Creamer said of Park. “She’s a great player and she deserved it.”<\/p>\n

Park, the overnight leader with Gal, took the outright lead for the first time with a birdie on the par-3 eighth hole, her third birdie in four holes.<\/strong> Gal pulled within one shot with back-to-back birdies on the 13th and 14th holes, but a bogey at the 15th dropped her two back. Park, with a steady hand and a clutch putter, closed out her victory with 10 consecutive pars.<\/p>\n

Michelle Wie and Yani Tseng tied for 6th!<\/strong><\/p>\n
