-
It was a congested leaderboard going into the final round of the LPGA Hana Bank Championship on Sunday.
The mist in South Korea cleared away to leave for fine conditions in the fourth round.
Lexi Thompson was one of those in a crowded pack.
The American rolled in birdies at the 7th and then again at the 9th to sit in the lead at -15.
Taiwan's Yani Tseng was hot on her heels, and at -13 under going into the back nine.
The 26-year-old would card a miraculous 10-under 62 to finish at -14 under meaning Thompson needed a par at the last to secure her second title of the year.
She did just that and afterwards admitted she was relieved to clinch the title.
"It's very satisfying, I mean, I always look forward to coming back to South Korea and play in front of these amazing fans, and on Sky 72, it's a great golf course, so I always look forward to it, but getting the win, it means so much."
