Victoria Elizabeth saved her best for last in the Yokohama Tire LPGA Classic last week in Alabama.

The third-year LPGA member from Dayton, Ohio aced the 16^th hole at the Senator Course in Prattville, Ala., en route to a final-round 69 and a T35 finish, her second-best finish of the 2015 season. It was the 12^th ace of the season.

This amount will increase to $5,000 for each eagle during the weekend of the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship and a formal check will be presented to the Wounded Warrior Project during the trophy ceremony.
