Fourteen year-old Yan (pictured here at the 2011 Optimist International Junior Golf Championship) led wire-to-wire to win by one stroke in the Girls’ Division with the Bridgestone Award first-round low score of 69.
Yan cemented her victory with a gutsy 18-foot birdie putt on the 16th hole of the final round before finishing with two straight pars. She finished on a three-round total of 218 (four-over par), a one-shot victory over Allyson Geer in second place.
"The whole time I knew (Geer) was right behind me," said Yan. "I just told myself to focus and concentrate on my own game."
Michelle’s 12 year-old sister Vanessa finished the event in 16th place.
