South Korean Kim A Lim won the US Open Women’s Golf at Champions Golf Club in Houston, Texas.
A Lim, 94th-ranked first in the world and a US Open rookie, impressed in the final round and covered all 18 holes in 67 strokes, four under par, finishing in a total of three in more than four rounds. .
She won by one stroke ahead of compatriot Ko Jin-young and American home jumper Amy Olson. The latter clearly played the competition despite the fact that her father-in-law died over the weekend. After Olson hit on Monday, when the competition was decided due to bad weather on Sunday and the advanced round, she was clearly shaken.
Several young Swedish amateur golfers have impressed during this year’s major final.
The best of them was Maja Stark, 21, who finished three over par and finished with a total of five over. Thus, she shared the position of the best Swede in the competition, a shared 13th position, with the 24-year-old professional Linnea Ström.
