South Korean golfer Ji Eun-hee has clinched her sixth LPGA title in Las Vegas.

Ji beat Ayaka Furue of Japan by three strokes in the finals of the Bank of Hope LPGA Match-Play held at Shadow Creek Golf Course in Las Vegas on Sunday.

With the win, Ji collected 225-thousand U.S. dollars in prize money.

The last time Ji earned an LPGA title was in January 2019 when she won the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions.

Also with Sunday’s victory, 36-year-old Ji became the oldest LPGA winner from South Korea. Previously, the record had been held by Park Hee-young who won the 2020 ISPS Handa Vic Open at the age of 32.
