Top-ranked Inbee Park won the Women’s British Open after coming from three shots behind fellow South Korean Jin-Young Ko in the final round Sunday, becoming the seventh female player to win four different majors.
Park picked up seven shots in her last 12 holes for a 7-under 65 to reel in Ko, who lost the lead at Turnberry when her second shot at No. 16 rolled into the burn. Park finished on 12-under 276.
The LPGA Tour is calling Park’s achievement a career Grand Slam, although Park hasn’t won the Evian Championship since it was given the status of a fifth major in 2013. She did win Evian in 2012.
“This is something I have been dreaming of all my life and all my career,” Park said. “To finally reach my goal is just a relief. … I don’t know what else to go for.”
