SPRINGFIELD, N.J.—Twenty-year-old Ruoning Yin of China birdied the 72nd hole to post a bogey-free 67 and win the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship on Sunday at Baltsurol Golf Club.
Yin finished at 8–under 276, edging Japan’s Yuka Saso by one stroke at the second women’s golf major of the year. Despite finding the rough off the tee at the par-5 18th, Yin reached the green in three and sank a birdie putt from roughly 10 feet to break a tie with Saso at 7 under.
