Congratulations to Laetitia Beck  for winning the 2010 Verizon Junior Heritage. Beck who lives in Bradenton, FL won the ladies title by two strokes with a four-over-par 147.

Starting the day, Beck shared the Junior Ladies division lead with Defending Champion Alexis Thompson (Coral Springs, FL). Although Beck lost last year’s title to Thompson in sudden death, she was not ready to repeat the experience.

Beck opened the final round with a birdie on the long and difficult tenth hole and the outright lead. Throughout the day, Beck shared the lead between Thompson and Sierra Sims (Austin, TX) on three different occasions but she never fell behind. Thompson finished the day two strokes back while Sims, three.

This was Beck’s third trip to the Verizon Junior Heritage and her third top ten.
