Ochoa keeps Corona title

MORELIA, Mexico – Mexico’s Lorena Ochoa had a 5-under 68 on Sunday to hold off Norway’s Suzann Pettersen by a stroke in a dramatic final round and defend her title at the Corona Championship.

Ochoa, who also won the tournament in 2006, had back-to-back birdies on the 15th and 16th holes to break a tie with Pettersen and finish at 25-under 267.

The charismatic star played without regular caddy Dave Booker, who was injured playing soccer on Saturday and was unable to help the 27-year-old Ochoa around Tres Marias Residential Country Club. She ended up calling on childhood coach Rafael Alarcon to caddy for her. (AP)
