Hannah Green made a 25 foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole to get into a playoff, and then birdied the first playoff hole and parred the second to win the JM Eagle LA Championship, at the Wilshire Country Club. Aditi Ashok and Xiyu Lin also birdied the final hole to get into the playoff, with all three finishing at 9-under par.
The win is Green’s third career LPGA title, and her first since 2019.
Two in the clubhouse at 9-under!
