An even par final round score of 72 today was good enough to earn Medina’s Melanie Green a share of second place at the Epson Pro Golf Tour’s Four Winds Invitational at South Bend, Indiana.

An eagle on No. 7, which off set a double bogey on No. 2, highlighted the round which also included a birdie on 9 and a bogey on 11.

Green, who started the day at 8 under, made par on each of the final seven holes to finish the tournament with that 8 under margin.

She opened the tourney on Friday with a 3 under par round of 69. She bettered that score on Saturday with a 5 under par round of 67 which included a burst of four straight bridies.

Green finished the tournament with a three day total of 8 under par 208.

This marks the 8th time in 15 starts that Green has finished in the top 10.

She also entered this week’s tourney ranked No. 3 in Epson’s Race for the Card competition and her tie for second will keep her near the top.

At the end of each season Epson presents LPGA Tour Cards to the top 15 point getters and Green is now in a strong position to earn one of those coveted cards which would put her on the LPGA Tour next year with only four regular season tournaments plus the championship tourney left on the schedule.
