Ìý
"It got off to a pretty slow start, just very consistent, lots of pars on the front-nine, just trying to get the putter hot," said Rank, who mounted a late charge to secure the victory. "Eventually, on the back-nine, really a late rally with four birdies in the last six holes, and that's really what helped."
Ìý
Rank converted five birdies on the day, finished at 6-under 278 for the tourney.

The top six males and top five females received an exemption into the 2012 world university golf championship that will be contested in early July in the Czech Republic.
