Melbourne, Australia (My Sportsbook) - Taiwan's Yani Tseng fired a flawless seven-under 66 on Sunday to capture the Women's Australian Open. The two-time LPGA Tour winner finished four rounds on the Commonwealth course at nine-under 283, beating 2009 winner Laura Davies of England by three strokes. A change to her putting grip helped Tseng produce a bogey-free round -- her first sub-70 score of the week. The world No. 6 collected seven birdies on the day, including four in her last six holes. "I haven't had this feeling for a while," said Tseng, a former major champion, "so I am very happy." Davies, who won at Metropolitan Golf Club last year, shot a 71 in the final round to finish alone in second place at six-under 286. Karrie Webb, coming off a victory in last week's ANZ Ladies Masters, had a 74 and took third place at five-under 287. Webb was the third-round leader.
