Jessica Porvasnik of Hinckley, Ohio, rallied from 4 down through five holes to defeat Julianne Alvarez of New Zealand, 1 up, on Thursday at the World Golf Hall of Fame Slammer & Squire Course in St. Augustine, Florida, and win the Women’s All-Pro Tour PXG Women’s Match Play Championship.
Porvasnik, who played at Ohio State, won both ends of the tournament format. She captured the stroke-play portion last week at 8-under-par 136 at the King & Bear. She earned a total of $13,000, $5,000 for the stroke play and $8,000 for the match play.
Alvarez, who was a member of the University of Washington’s national championship team in 2016, got off to a quick lead, but lost it when Porvasnik won Nos. 7, 8, 10 and 11.
