Nancy Harvey of Swift Current, Saskatchewan, won the Thriftway Washington State Women's Open this week at Twin Lakes Golf and Country Club in Federal Way. Harvey, a former LPGA Tour member, shot 76-71-147 to win $4,000 and finish four strokes in front. Jordan Allyne of Bellevue was low amateur with a two-day total of 166 on the par-72 course.
