South Korean golfer Park In-bee won the Sime Darby LPGA Malaysia tournament on Sunday for her third career victory.
At Kuala Lumpur Golf & Country Club, Park overcame a two-shot final round deficit against compatriot Choi Na-yeon. Park fired a four-under 67 on Sunday for the four-round total of 15-under. Choi managed only a 71 to finish two shots behind Park in second place.
Park picked up six birdies over her first 14 holes, and clung to the victory despite closing out with two bogeys. Choi had three birdies against a bogey on the front nine, and came undone by a double bogey on the par-3 17th.
Park, ranked sixth in the world, ended as the only player in the field who shot in the 60s in each of the four rounds.
She also took home $285,000 for the winner’s check, further padding her lead on the tour‘s money list over Stacy Lewis. Lewis finished in a tie for 19th at 4-under.
Ryu So-yeon was a third South Korean in the top 10, finishing a solo fifth at 10-under.
The LPGA Tour comes to South Korea for its next tournament, as Sky72 Golf Club near Incheon International Airport prepares to host the LPGA KEB HanaBank Championship starting Friday.
