Nelly Korda defeated Leona Maguire 4&3 in the finals to win the T-Mobile Match Play, at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas. The win is Korda’s fourth win in her last four tournaments. She defeated Narin An 4&3 in the semi-finals and Angel Yin 3&2 in the quarters.
The event had 3 rounds of stroke play, with the top-8 advancing to the “knockout” round of match play (four players were tied for 8th place in the stroke play portion, with Moriya Jutanugarn winning a playoff for the final spot in the knockout rounds).
