Kim triumphs
KIM Sei-young held off Ariya Jutanugarn 1 up on Sunday to win the Lorena Ochoa Match Play for her sixth LPGA Tour title.
After Jutanugarn won the par-5 17th with a birdie to force another hole, Kim finished off the match with a halve for a par on the par-4 18th. In the morning semifinals at Club de Golf Mexico, Kim beat Hur Mi-jung 5 & 4, and the third-ranked Jutanugarn topped Michelle Wie 4 & 3. Hur won the third-place match, overcoming a five-hole deficit to beat Wie in 22 holes. Kim trailed for only four of the 95 holes she played, also beating Maude-Aimee Leblanc (3 & 1), Danielle Kang (3 & 2), Charley Hull (3 & 1) and Karine Icher (5 & 4) in the event that switched from stroke to match play and moved from November. The 24-year-old South Korean player is projected to jump from 12th to 8th in the world ranking.
