America’s Stacy Lewis holds the trophy after winning the final round of the HSBC Women’s Champions in Singapore on March 3, 2013. She won by just one shot from South Korea’s Choi Na-Yeon after a thrilling final round on Sunday.

World number four Stacy Lewis won the HSBC Women’s Champions by just one shot from South Korea’s Choi Na-Yeon after a thrilling final round on Sunday.

Lewis carded a scintillating eagle on the par-five seventh but then bogeyed 15 and 17 before clinching it with a two-foot par putt on the last for a score of 71 and 15-under-par 273 at Singapore’s par-72 Sentosa Golf Club.

Choi, the world number two, carded 72 for 14-under 274 and Paula Creamer, who is recovering from whiplash injuries after a car crash last week in Thailand, was a shot further back in third.
