Hannah Green goes wire-to-wire at the BMW Ladies Championship, clinches third title of 2024

Seventeen of the 18 winners on tour this season were at the BMW.

Hannah Green’s dream year continues with her third victory of the season at the BMW Ladies Championship. Green said she came into the 2024 season highly motivated after getting married in January. The 27-year-old won in her second start to the season in Singapore with a one-shot victory over France’s Celine Boutier.

In South Korea, Green once again finished one stroke ahead of Boutier, claiming her first wire-to-wire victory since 2019. A clutch birdie on the 17th and a gutsy par on the final hole at Seowon Valley Country Club clinched Green’s sixth career LPGA title.

“The putt on 17, I was very nervous,” said Green, who needed to do something special after Boutier’s 66 put her in the clubhouse at 18 under.

“I was just very happy to see that one go in, and on the last hole, I was hoping I would have more of a tap-in but, I like to make things interesting. But yeah, just super proud of myself for hanging in there because today conditions were very tough. The wind was very swirly, and I think everyone was trying to battle the wind.”

Green closed with a 71 to finish at 19 under against a stacked but limited field of 78 players. Seventeen of the 18 winners on tour this season were at the BMW. World No. 1 Nelly Korda, a six-time winner in 2024, missed the event due to a neck injury.

Boutier, who also finished in the top 10 last week in China, recorded five birdies over her last seven holes and led the field in greens in regulation.

“I think my long game has been really solid for a while now,” said Boutier. “I just haven’t been able to score very much, and then the last two weeks, I was able to hit a few rounds really low. So I think that’s helped me a lot.”

Green became the first Aussie since Karrie Webb in 2006 to win three times in one season. She’s only the third Australian in tour history to accomplish the feat, joining Webb and Jan Stephenson.

Play suspended at BMW Ladies Championship, where Hannah Green leads and Lydia Ko lurks

Green was 4 under through nine holes when play was halted.

Australia’s Hannah Green holds a two-shot lead at the BMW Ladies Championship after play was suspended at 1:05 p.m. local time on Friday in South Korea due to unplayable conditions.

Rain throughout the day at Seowon Valley Country Club led to standing water on the greens. Play will resume on Saturday at 8 a.m. local time with no re-pairing. The third round is slated to begin at 9:48 a.m.

Green was 4 under through nine holes when play was halted. She’s two shots ahead of South Africa’s Ashleigh Buhai, who is playing in the same group along with Jenny Shin, one of four players at 8 under. Former BMW champion Lydia Ko joins Shin in a share of third alongside Hye-Jin Choi and Nanna Koerstz Madsen.

No one in the field of 78 finished the second round, though several groups were on their final hole.

A two-time winner on tour this season, Green took five weeks off following the FM Championship and went back home to Australia. Green, who returned to the tour last week in China, said on Thursday that she didn’t get to play as much as she would’ve liked in Perth. She tied for 47th at the Buick LPGA Shanghai.

“The weather actually wasn’t as great as I was hoping it would be back at home,” she said, “but obviously sometimes life just gets really busy, and it actually was a busier trip than I thought.

“I did kind of know that it was going to be a little bit probably tougher last week, and I actually decided yesterday to not play a practice round and just do some good practice because I felt like I also wasn’t able to do that last week in China. I think that paid off today.”

Ko hasn’t finished outside the top 10 in her last six starts worldwide, including three victories. The 2022 BMW winner was bogey-free through 13 holes with three birdies when play was suspended. The LPGA’s most recent Hall of Fame inductee began the week by hosting a dinner for LPGA players and staff.
