Jin Young Ko defended her title at the HSBC Women’s World Championship with a 2-shot win over Nelly Korda. It was a very rainy week in Singapore with at least 3 of the rounds experiencing rain delays, including a delay of about an hour during the final round when the leaders had two holes left to play. When play resumed, Ko made two pars to seal the win.
The win is Ko’s 14th LPGA win, and the first since this event in 2022.
