MAINEVILLE, Ohio (AP) — Lydia Ko extended her amazing summer run when she turned a two-shot deficit into a rout by closing with a 9-under 63 to win the Kroger Queen City Championship for her third LPGA Tour title of the season.
Ko won for the third time in her last four starts, which includes her Olympic gold medal that gave the 27-year-old from New Zealand enough points for the LPGA Hall of Fame.
It also includes another major in the Women's British Open, this one at St. Andrews.
“It's been pretty surreal,” Ko said after her five-shot victory at the TPC River's Bend over Jeeno Thitikul, who closed with a 70 and simply couldn't keep up.
