Webb Wins 2006 Kraft Nabisco - Gulbis Close

Natalie Gulbis had a great run at the 2006 Kraft Nabisco Championship finishing in a tie for 3rd place with Michelle Wie. Showing the determination that will make her a winner sooner than later, Natalie Gulbis shot a 4 under par 68 on Sunday to be in contention on the final hole of regulation play. Only a missed birdie putt on 18 kept her from a playoff with Karrie Webb and Lorena Ochoa.

After starting the tournament 11 shots behind Ochoa after round 1, Natalie fought back on the weekend for a combined 8 under par on Saturday and Sunday. Natalie could have easily just tried to finish the tournament and make a paycheck, but her desire to be the best allowed her to fight her way to the top of the leaderboard on Sunday.
