EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France — Angela Stanford ended her long wait for a first major title when her 3-under 68 was enough to win the Evian Championship by one shot Sunday after long-time leader Amy Olson made double-bogey on the 18th. Stanford earned a $577,500 check for making her 14th career top-10 finish in majors a winning one. Playing in the second-last group, Stanford went eagle-double bogey-birdie from the 15th, then saw her birdie chance brush the hole on No. Olson went to the 17th tee with a one-shot lead on 13 under as Ernst set a clubhouse target of 11 under. A par 4 would win, but she hooked her tee shot into the rough, and her third-shot approach was well below the pin.
