Full leaderboard<\/a><\/p>\n

South Korea’s Haeran Ryu landed a maiden major with a two-shot victory at the Women’s PGA Championship.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 25-year-old went into the day with a one-shot lead and relinquished her place at the top of the leaderboard in a fluctuating final round, with three bogeys in the first five holes.<\/p>\n

But she got back on track with five birdies in a two-under-par round to finish on -13 and take the $1.95m (\u00a31.48m) winner’s cheque.<\/p>\n

The tournament purse of $13m (\u00a39.8m) is the largest in women’s golf history.<\/p>\n

“It feels like a dream has come true because I tried a couple times to be a major champion and I didn’t get it,” Ryu said.<\/p>\n

“Today I did it and I’m so happy right now.”<\/p>\n

It was an incredible comeback for a player who was tied for 70th and 10 shots off the lead after the opening round at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota.<\/p>\n

Canada’s Brooke Henderson and Dewi Weber of the Netherlands each held the lead following a weather-delayed start to the round but both finished on -10, tied for third – a career-best finish in a major for Weber.<\/p>\n

Ryu’s compatriot Ina Yoon had fallen away on the third day after leading by five, but fought back to finish second on -11.<\/p>\n

America’s Nelly Korda – chasing a historic third straight major championship win – was four shots off the lead at the start of play but could not kick on, ending tied for eighth on six under.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
