Kelly Fisher nails second win of season in Pacific Coast Classic

England's Kelly Fisher won the inaugural WPBA Pacific Coast Classic.

In a tight final she beat Vivian Villareal (USA) 7-5.

The semi-finals saw Fisher edge Karen Corr (Ireland) 7-6 while Villareal defeated Monica Webb (USA) 7-5.

It was Fisher's second Classic Tour victory of the season after having also won the US Open. In total she's now got five wins on tour.

This was Villareal's second high finish in a row. Last month she lost to Jasmin Ouschan in the semi-finals of the Carolina Classic.

With this win Fisher solidifies her lead in the WPBA rankings. Villareal jumps from 7th to 6th. Corr stays in second and Xiaoting Pan (China) holds on to third.

The event took place from October 1-5 2008 at the Chinook Winds Casino & Resort, Lincoln City, Oregon, USA. It was the sixth of seven this season on the Classic Tour. Last up is the WPBA Championship, 12-16 November, in Hollywood, Florida.
