2007 U.S. Women's Open


The 2007 U.S. Women's Open was the 62nd U.S. Women's Open, held June 28 to July 1 at the Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club in Southern Pines, North Carolina. Cristie Kerr won the first of her two major titles, two strokes ahead of runners-up Lorena Ochoa and Angela Park. The event was televised by ESPN and NBC Sports.
Due to weather delays, the third round began on Saturday afternoon and was completed on Sunday morning. Kerr shot 66 to gain the 54-hole lead at 209, one stroke ahead of top-ranked Ochoa, Morgan Pressel, and Jiyai Shin.
Pine Needles previously hosted the championship in 1996 and 2001; it joined Atlantic City Country Club as the only courses to host three U.S. Women's Opens.
