Sherlock claimed second place with her even par 288, while Alejandra Llaneza of Mexico City, Mexico rounded out the tournaments top three at one-over, 289.

"This is the biggest event I've ever won and it feels amazing," said Stacey. "I thought about playing it safe and just laying it up on 18 but I decided that wouldn't be much fun, and it ended up working out for me."

Following her win, Stacey made quick adjustments to her travel plans to accommodate the addition of the 2008 CN Canadian Women's Open into her playing schedule. Keating's victory earned her an exemption into Canada's only LPGA event to be held August 11-17 at the Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
