NAPLES, Fla. – Stacy Lewis’ chances to win the CME Group Tour Championship grew long Saturday, but she got herself more thickly in the mix for the CME Globe’s $1 million jackpot.
In a year of so many frustrating second-place finishes, Lewis could claim the LPGA’s biggest check of the year with yet another second-place finish.
How strangely satisfying would that be?
“It would be a really nice bonus,” Lewis said.
With six second-place finishes and three thirds without a win this year, Lewis would relish a victory, but even with a 5-under-par 67 Saturday, she will start Sunday six shots off the lead.
