Female golfer Yim Sung-ah on Sunday clinched her first LPGA Tour victory after Annika Sorenstam's final-round collapse at the Florida's Natural Charity Championship.

In the final round, the 22-year-old Yim finished with a score of 16-under 272 to win by two strokes in just her second year on the tour.

She is the 19th ethnic Korean to win an LPGA event.

Sorenstam won last year's tournament by a commanding ten strokes, but committed a bogey and a double-bogey late in the final round.
