It only took seven days for Amy Yang to get a little redemption.
Yang, who trailed Stacy Lewis by a shot heading into the final round at Siam Country Club, shot a 3-under 69 to win the Honda LPGA Thailand on Sunday by two shots, finishing on 15-under 273.
“I don’t know what just happened, Yang said after the win. “I still can’t believe I did it today.”
Stacy Lewis, who had a share of the lead after each of the prior three rounds, shot a final round of even-par 72 to fall into a tie for second with Yani Tseng (67) and Mirim Lee (69). Lewis and Yang were tied for the lead on the short par-4 15th hole, but a Lewis double bogey and a Yang birdie set the stage for Yang’s win.
Tseng’s joint runner-up finish is her best payday since finishing in the same position at the 2014 Kingsmill Championship.
