Ji birdies 72nd hole to claim Women's Open

Filed under: by: golf clubs showcase


Eun Hee Ji found surprising calm in a double-bogey and a dramatic victory with an improbable birdie.

The 20-year-old from South Korea made a lengthy birdie putt on the 72nd hole to emerge from a Sunday scramble with an even-par 71 and claim the U.S. Women's Open.

She outlasted playing partner and third-round leader Cristie Kerr, who struggled from the outset in the final round and failed in her bid for a second Women's Open title in three years.
