Japan’s Ai Miyazato came from behind to win the NW Arkansas Championship on Sunday for her second victory of the year and ninth LPGA Tour career title. Miyazato overcame a five-shot deficit as she made a five-foot birdie putt on No. 18 at the Pinnacle Country Club course to finish at 12 under for the tournament. She outduelled Mika Miyazato, who missed a 15-foot birdie attempt on the final hole. The two women are not related. Ai Miyazato had seven birdies and one bogey in the final round to finish one shot ahead of Mika Miyazato and Azahara Munoz. Ai Miyazato became just the third player to win multiple tournaments this season as she also won the LOTTE Championship in April. Three-time winner Yani Tseng, of Taiwan, and American Stacy Lewis also have multiple wins.
