On the fourth day of 2008 Final LPGA Qualifying Tournament, Stacy Lewis took the leading position. In the fourth round, Stacy Lewis, Mollie Fankhauser, Michelle Wie, Shiho Oyama, and Amy Yang competed on Champions course. Stacy Lewis finished in 67 strokes. Michelle Wie, took the second lead by finishing in 68 storkes. Amy Yang, got into third position by finishing the course in 67 strokes. Shiho Oyama, who was leading the scoreboard in the first two rounds, went to the fourth position. She finished with one stroke below par. At the end of the day, Stacy Lewis scored 273, Michelle Wie 274, Amy Yang 275, Shiho Oyama 276 and Mollie Fankhauser 277.
It looks like Michelle Wie is going to earn her position in the LPGA tour. For the first time in more than two years, the lady made it to the final round of any tournament. In the fourth round, she scored birdies on hole 4, 7, 9, 12, and 16. At the end of the day, she remained one shot behind Lewis. lpga.com reports:
I played really well. I could have shot a really low number today, but it¡¯s hard to be upset with a 67,¡± said Lewis, after a round that saw her card five birdies on holes three through eight for a front-nine 31. ¡°I haven¡¯t thought about top-20 all week. It¡¯s just not a goal of mine. I¡¯m here to win. Out here, you have to pay attention with your shots. You could hit it offline into some of the greens and get into bad situations.¡
Amy Yang, a three-time winner on the Ladies European Tour (LET) and 2008 LPGA Tour rookie, said, her goal is to just finish in the top twenty. She would be very happy to win the tournament but she did not want to change anything. She would now only focus on her game.
