[앵커]

Park In-bi won the LPGA Tour Volunteers of America Classic after 7 weeks with her closest junior So-yeon Yoo.

Ko Jin-young also finished the tournament in 5th place, revealing the prospect of the US Women’s Open, the last major tournament of the season four days ahead.

Park In-bi’s lead race, cruising toward the second championship of the season, stopped at the par 4 hole 12.

The second shot fell into the deep rough next to the bunker and lost a stroke in this hole.

Ko Jin-young, who took the lead at the same time, was also caught in the 14th hole.

The approach shot did not cross the front chin of the green and came down again, writing down the double bogie.

Angela Stanford started a buddy show while our players were slowing down.

With a fantastic sense of putt, Stanford, who reported a birdie on the 13th and 14th holes in a row, and took the lead alone, kicked off the chase of our players with a back-to-back birdie on the 16th and 17th holes.

Stanford, who traded 7 birdies and 3 bogies and reduced 4 strokes, won the 2nd place group by 2 strokes with a final total of 7 under par.

With this overwhelming, forty-four of our age, Stanford, the 20th year of the LPGA, succeeded in winning its 7th time in two years after the 2018 Evian Championship.

Park In-bi, who returned to the LPGA after 7 weeks, was tied for second place, and Yoo So-yeon, who reported a birdie side by side in the last 18th hole, and Jojo-rim, a Korean American, joined the tie for second place.

Jinyoung Ko, who was ranked 34th in the LPGA return match last week, finished with 4th under par 5th.
