The 23-year-old finished with a two-shot lead over Maja Stark, making several key birdies and maintaining her lead throughout the final round to clinch the win.
With this victory, Korda secured her second major title with a total of 13-under par. In a post-game press conference, the young golfer expressed her excitement and gratitude for the win, crediting her hard work and dedication to her success on the course.
