Yu Hae-ran’s Tisha.
Yoo Hae-ran narrowly missed out on her first win of the season and her second overall win on the LPGA Tour.
On the 22nd (Korean time), at the final round of the LPGA Tour Dana Open (total prize money of $1.75 million) held at the Highland Meadows Golf Club (par 71) in Sylvania, Ohio, USA, Yoo Hae-ran shot a 6-under 65 to finish in second place (19-under 265), one stroke behind Channethi Wannasen (Thailand).
Hae-ran Yoo, who was once five strokes behind and tied for first place at the 15th hole, was looking forward to her first win of the season and second career win following the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship in October of last year, but suffered a painful bogey on the par-4 16th hole.
He made birdies on the 17th hole (par 5) and the 18th hole (par 5), but was unable to turn the game around by responding with a birdie on the Wannasen hole.
Yoo Hae-ran, who had seven birdies, was blocked from winning by just one bogey.
The disappointment was even greater because among the players participating in the Dana Open, which has produced 12 Korean champions so far and is called the ‘Korean player’s home turf’, Yoo Hae-ran was the one with the highest world ranking and prize money ranking.
Although the comeback win was lost, Yoo Hae-ran recorded her highest ranking this season.
Yu Hae-ran, who has six top-10 finishes this year, had her best finish of the season as a third-place finish at the JM Eagle LA Championship.
Wannasen, who won the Portland Classic on Monday last September, has now achieved two career wins in just over a year.
Wannasen shot a 4-under 67 with six birdies and two bogeys on the day.
Last year’s Dana Open winner Lin Grant (Sweden) and Tseng Suzuki (Taiwan) tied for third place with 14-under 270.
Grant blew his chance for sole possession of third place with a double bogey on the final 18th hole (par 5).
Choi Hye-jin, who took the lead on the first day, shot a 1-under 70 in the final round to finish tied for 7th place (10-under 274). 카지노사이트
