Former World No. 1 Jin Young Ko won for the first time in a year as she successfully defended her title at the HSBC Women’s World Championship. After battling a wrist injury for most of 2022, Ko called it the most important victory of her career.
Ko has now won at least one title in each of the past six seasons. The 27-year-old has 14 career LPGA titles, including two majors. A $270,000 winner’s check moves her to 22nd on the LPGA career money list, passing Yani Tseng and Ariya Jutanugarn with $10,680,535.
Nelly Korda birdied the 72nd hole to move into solo second and take $169,299 at the no-cut event.
Jessica Korda, playing in her first event since returning from a back injury, finished last after rounds of 76-78-79-72, earning $4,078.
