The
LPGA's final tournament on U.S. soil until mid-November ended Sunday evening at Hoakalei Country Club in Hawaii at the Lotte Championship and a familiar face hoisted the trophy.
Jenno Thitikul, the second-ranked player in the world, fended off a Sunday rally from Ina Yoon with a final-round 4-under 68 to win by three shots.
Thitikul, 23, bagged the $450,000 first-place prize and became the sixth player in the LPGA history to break the $20-million threshold. She has moved passed Cristie Kerr into the fifth place overall and now trails only Annika Sorenstam, Lydia Ko, Nelly Korda and Karrie Webb on the all-time list.
