Jodi Ewart Shadoff FINALLY Wins First LPGA Title After 246 Attempts..
Welcome back to Sport Shock. After over a decade of playing on the LPGA without a win, Jodi Ewart Shadoff was honest when she finally lifted the trophy at the LPGA Mediheal Championship saying, “I didn't know if this moment would ever come.” The 34-year-old from North Yorkshire, England outlasted a trio of major champions and a recent tour winner to shoot a final-round 71 to finish the tournament at 15 under, good enough for a one-shot victory over Japan’s Yuka Saso. Georgia Hall, Danielle Kang, and Paula Reto were another shot back, tied for third place.
Ewart Shadoff started playing on tour in 2011 after making it through Q school. Though she’s been waiting on her win, her career hasn’t been without highlights. She’s a three-time member of Europe’s Solheim Cup team, and in 2017 she finished runner-up at the AIG Women’s British Open. But after winless seasons, a back injury, and an especially rough season in 2021—she played 19 events and missed 11 cuts—Ewart Shadoff wasn’t convinced she’d ever be an LPGA winner. Ewart Shadoff, playing in her 246th LPGA event, started the final round with a four-shot lead at the Saticoy Club in Somis, Calif., but it was gone at the turn. In fact, instead of being up, she was one shot down to Reto, who had turned in four under. The patience paid off. Reto’s hot round cooled late in the back nine, when she made back-to-back bogeys on 16 and 17. Pressure came from a few groups ahead as Saso, who played the last five holes four under, forced Ewart Shadoff to play her last five holes one under par. And she did just that, making a birdie on the par-5 14th hole, then following with pars on each of the final four holes. The most difficult of the final four came at the end when Ewart Shadoff admitted that her one-footer for the victory felt a little longer than it looked.
