Australian golfer Hannah Green secured her sixth victory on the LPGA Tour and her third this season by winning the BMW Ladies Championship in Paju, South Korea. Green displayed exceptional skill and consistency throughout the tournament, finishing at an impressive 19-under 269 and maintaining or sharing the lead after all four rounds.
Finishing just one stroke behind Green was Celine Boutier of France, who shot a remarkable 6-under 66 on Sunday. Chanettee Wannasaen of Thailand also put up a strong performance, ending the tournament two shots behind the winner with a score of 68.
Two South Korean golfers, Hye-Jin Choi and Yu Jin Sung, tied for fourth place, finishing three strokes behind Green. The competitive field of the tournament featured eight of the top 10 LPGA players, with the notable absence of No. 1-ranked Nelly Korda, who withdrew due to a neck injury before the event.
The tournament showcased the talent of 17 out of the 18 winners from events held earlier this season, highlighting the high level of competition and skill on display at the BMW Ladies Championship.
Green's victory not only solidifies her position as a top contender on the LPGA Tour but also underscores her exceptional performance this season. With her latest win, Green continues to make a mark in the world of professional golf, further establishing herself as a force to be reckoned with on the international stage.
