TOKYO (AP) - High school student Ryo Ishikawa won the Munsingwear Open KSB Cup on Sunday, becoming the youngest winner in the history of the Japanese men's professional tour.
Ishikawa, a 15-year-old former national junior high school champion, shot a 6-under-par 66 in the final round for a one-stroke win over veteran Katsumasa Miyamoto in his first tour appearance. "It was a dream round," said Ishikawa, who finished at 12-under 276. "I just kept trying to make birdies."
