This spring she won two tournaments in a row before finishing second last week to South Africa's Sally Little in a sudden-death play-off at the Kathryn Crosby-Honda Civic Classic in San Diego. Long off the tee, extraordinarily accurate around the green and a superb putter, Lopez is the young season's leading money winner-$47,317-and is the favorite in this weekend's Colgate-Dinah Shore Winners Circle tournament, the L.P.G.A.'s richest...
