TOMAKOMAI, Hokkaido (Kyodo) Tour veteran Nobuko Kizawa finally put the golf girls in the shade to make history Sunday as the 40-year-old prevailed in a nerve-shredding playoff for her first career title at the Nitori Ladies. Kizawa beat South Korea's Kim Na Ri after parring the first playoff hole at Katsura Golf Club, ending a wait of over two decades for her breakthrough victory on the JLPGA Tour.
