Charley Hull won her third LGPA Tour title after overhauling world No. 1 Jeeno Thitikul in the final hole of the Queens City Championship in TPC River Bend, Ohio.
Hull and Thitikul both reached the final green with two shots, and Thitikul placed her first putt within six feet of the cup. Hull missed her hawk chance, but Thitikul both made her birdie attempt and PAR putt, which would force the playoffs, past the hole. It left Hull with a birdie and victory for two-foot putters, who converted to her first LPGA Tour champion since 2022.
Hull finished with the final round of 68, ending with a score of 20 under par and won the $300,000 winner.
“I’m not really watching her birdie putt because I thought she was fortified,” Hull said. Hull finished second in the first two games and is now ranked eighth in the world rankings. “I think I didn’t end until the Fat Lady sang, but I kept shaking because I just didn’t expect it. But, yes, it felt great.”
England’s Lottie Woad has earned her highest score on the U.S. Tour since she moved to professional earlier this season, with her highest score on the U.S. Tour after finishing the Scottish Open and the Ladies Scottish European Tour.
