Lydia Ko ended her three-year LPGA title drought in impressive style Saturday, firing a final-round 65 to win the Lotte Championship by seven strokes.
Former world number one Ko, a two-time major champion, didn t put a foot wrong as she notched her 16th LPGA title but her first since the 2018 Mediheal Championship.
Her 28-under par total of 260 at Kapolei Golf Club in Oahu, Hawaii, put her seven in front of South Korean s Park In-bee and Kim Sei-young, Ireland s Leona Maguire and American Nelly Korda.
