South Korea's In Gee Chun has won the US Women's Open by one shot at Lancaster Country Club.
20-year old In Gee Chun won the 2015 U.S. Women’s Open at the Lancaster Country Club on Sunday.
In Gee Chun, from South Korea, shot a four-under-par 66 in the final round, to finish an eight-under 272 for a one-stroke victory over compatriot Amy Yang.
Chun birdied four of the last seven holes to rally for a one-stroke victory on Sunday. She is the first player to win her U.S. Open debut since Birdie Kim in 2005.
Third-round leader Yang struggled in the middle of her round and then pulled within one by going eagle-birdie at holes 16 and 17, but a bogey on the 18th caused her to fall a stroke short.
Playing in the final group on the last day of the championship for the third time in four years, Yang squandered a three-stroke lead and settled for a one-over 71 and was second at 273.
