AMY YANG WINS FIRST MAJOR TITLE AT KPMG WOMEN’S PGA CHAMPIONSHIP

AMY YANG WINS FIRST MAJOR TITLE AT KPMG WOMEN’S PGA CHAMPIONSHIP

by: Emma Hruby | Just Women’s Sports

Amy Yang won her first LPGA tour event on Sunday, taking home the title at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. 

At 34 years old, Yang is the oldest major winner in the LPGA since 2018 when Angela Stanford won the Evian Championship at age 40.

“At one point I thought, ‘Will I ever win a major championship before I retire?'” Yang said after securing the victory. “And I finally did it and it’s just amazing. Golf is really just like a fight against myself. I think I proved myself that I can compete and I can do this.”

The South Korea national ended the tournament with an even-par 72 to finish at seven-under 281. At one point, she was at 10 under and held a seven-shot lead that no challenger was able to overcome. 

It was also Yang’s 75th major start, the most before a player’s first major win since Stanford won hers in her 76th major start.

“It’s been incredible all this week — everyone was rooting for me,” Yang said. “I want to go sign some autographs for them.”
