A 12-foot birdie on the 18th hole by Atthaya Thitkul allowed the Thai native and teammate Ruoning Yin of China to close out a final-round 62, enough to hold off the duo of Ally Ewing and Jennifer Kupcho by a shot to win the Dow Championship
“I was so nervous,” said Thitkul after claiming victory in the LPGA Tour’s annual two-player team event. “I knew this putt was for both of us. I wanted to make it so bad.”
Thitikul and Yin finished at 22-under 258 on the week. Each gets credit for their third career LPGA titles, and each won a prize money payout of $366,082. It was Yin’s first win since last year’s KPMG Women’s PGA Championship and pushed her past the $1 million for the season.
Here’s the prize money payouts for each golfer at the Dow Championship.
