Golfer Park Bo-gyeom pulled off a dramatic late comeback to secure her first-ever major title at the third major tournament of the KLPGA season.

Starting the day tied for second place, just one stroke behind the leader, Park sank a chip shot from the rough just outside the green on the very first hole straight into the cup, leaping into a tie for the lead.

A fierce battle for the lead ensued between Park Bo-gyeom and Yu Seo-yeon. While Park successfully saved par on all of her final nine holes, the momentum shifted when Yu bogeyed the 14th hole and then missed a 2-meter par putt on the 16th hole.

Holding onto her one-stroke lead until the end, Park claimed her fourth career victory and her first major championship.
