Jin Young Ko and Minjee Lee battled it out at the Cognizant LPGA Founders Cup, with Ko coming back from 4-shot behind to catch Lee, and then win on the first playoff hole. Ko had a final- round 67 (which was the lowest round of the day) to finish at 13-under par.

Lee had a chance to win on the first playoff hole, but ran her birdie attempt well past the hole and could not make the comebacker, handing the win to Ko.

Mike Merrill had the best week in the LPGA Golf Pool, scoring 42 points.
