Lydia Ko shot a final round 3-under to win the Gainbridge LPGA at Boca Rio by a shot over Danielle Kang. Kang had a one-shot lead partway through the final nine, but Ko regained the lead with a birdie on 15 and held on the rest of the way. She clinched the victory with a great up and down from the bunker on 18.
This was Ko’s 17th win, and she is only 24.
