IBARAKI, Japan (AP) -- Shanshan Feng broke away with three straight mid-round birdies and held on to win the TOTO Japan Classic on Sunday for her second straight victory.

The 27-year-old Chinese star closed with 2-under 70 at the Taiheiyo Club's tree-lined Minori Course for a one-stroke victory over South Korea's Ha Na Jang.

After birdieing the par-5 17th to take a two-stroke lead, Feng three-putted for bogey on the par-4 18th - holing the winner from 1 1/2 feet. She finished at 13-under 203 in cool conditions after winning a week ago in steamy Malaysia.
