Paula Creamer wins the 2010 Womens US Open at Oakmont Country Club.  Only months after having reconstructive surgery to her left thumb, Creamer fought threw the pain to win by 4 strokes.

She finished the tournament as the only player under par on what was the toughest test that the LPGA tour has faced in recent times.

When she hit her approach shot on twelve, the pain was too much and she couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

It took a lot of courage and determination for Paula to come back and play tournament golf only weeks after her surgery.


We want to take a moment to congratulate Paula on her triumphant US Open win at Oakmont Country Club.
