Park wins PGA again

HARRISON, N.Y. – Inbee Park shot a final round of 68 and finished at 19-under par to win the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship for the third consecutive year and retake the No. 1 ranking in women’s golf.

The 26-year-old from South Korea made five birdies and shot a bogey-free round at the Westchester Country Club, finishing the season’s second major five strokes ahead of 22-year-old compatriot Sei Young Kim on Sunday.

Park, who shot a 273 for the tournament, tied the tour record for the lowest score in a major in relationship to par and finished the four rounds with 22 birdies and just three bogeys.

It was her fifth major championship in the last 12 played on the LPGA Tour since the beginning of 2013.
