Karrie Webb held off Annika Sorenstam by a stroke in the Longs Drugs Challenge for her LPGA Tour-high fourth victory of the year.
Ahead by five strokes after a third-round 66, Webb parred the final five holes in the final round for a 2-under 70 and one-stroke victory over Sorenstam, the Swedish star who made things interesting with a 65.
Webb had a 15-under 273 total on Blackhawk's Lakeside Course in Danville, Calif.
Morgan Pressel (68) finished third at 12 under.
Tennessee left-hander Eric Axley won the Texas Open in San Antonio for his first PGA Tour title, closing with a 1-over 71 for a 15-under 265 total and a three-stroke victory.
Three players finished at 12 under, including 21-year-old Anthony Kim. Playing in his first PGA Tour event with a sponsor's exemption, Kim shot a 65 to tie for second with Dean Wilson (69) and first-round leader Justin Rose (68).
