the Australian US Open champion Minjee Lee was crowned 13 under par and 4 stroke difference to her immediate pursuer, the American Mina Harigae (-9).
Lee took home $ 1.8 million for this win, the largest prize in women’s golf history.
The Australian started the day on Sunday with three shots ahead of Harigae and enough for him to sign the field pair to seal his victory.
Instead, Harigae couldn’t close the gap with Lee and gave a +1 card.
At Pine Needles Lodge & Golf Club in Southern Pines, North Carolina, USA, Carlota Ciganda closed out her participation with a total of +5.
