When Sunday’s final round of the women’s PGA Championship at the Congressional Country Club in Maryland began, Chun In-Gee had the victory as in a box. Five bogeys later, the box was smashed and the competition became a settlement between Chun and the American Lexi Thompson.
Thompson started with a birdie on the first and third holes and before the end of the day, the 27-year-old had made two more.
With two holes left in the competition, both players were five under par.
Best Swedish Anna Nordqvist
In the end, it was still Chun who stood the stool for the pressure and won on a total of five wonders, while the American made a bogey on the penultimate hole.
The win in Maryland is the 27-year-old’s third major title in her career and her first victory since the autumn of 2018.
– This means so much. I have not won in several years, but I know that the fans at home in South Korea have continued to believe in me all the time, she says.
The best Swede was Anna Nordqvist who after a less successful round went into two over par for the day. In total, the Swede stayed in an over par and a shared 16th place.
