Pernilla Lindberg Wins ANA Inspiration with Eighth Playoff Hole Birdie
Pernilla Lindberg knocked in a 30-foot birdie putt on the EIGHTH playoff hole to win the ANA Inspiration over Inbee Park (Jennifer Song was eliminated after the 3rd playoff hole).
The playoff went over two days, as it was called due to darkness after the 4th playoff hole, with the remaining holes played on Monday morning. Here is what it looked like when they played the 4th playoff hole on Sunday night:
"Thank god for the tracer."
