Yealimi Noh will always remember her first LPGA victory, but this will shine not just because she won, but who she beat to do it. The 23-year-old Californian shot a three-under 68 to beat 15-time LPGA winner Jin Young Ko by four shots to win the Founders Cup Sunday at Bradenton Country Club in Florida.

Yealimi Noh turned a one-shot deficit into a three-shot lead over Jin Young Ko in the span of two holes on the back nine and cruised from there to her first LPGA victory in the Founders Cup.

Ko Jin-young finished as runner-up in the Founders Cup on Sunday, posting a 17-under-par 267, marking another strong finish in the LPGA tournament where she became the first golfer to win the title three times in 2023.
