Chinese star Ruoning Yin wins FM Championship at TPC Boston
Norton, Massachusetts (AP) — Ruoning Yin claimed the FM Championship at TPC Boston on Sunday, claiming her sixth career LPGA Tour triumph and marking a 25-foot birdie putt on the par-5 12th hole to tie for the lead with Hyo Joo Kim. The 23-year-old Chinese player completed the round with a two-under 70, securing a two-stroke victory.
Yin expressed her excitement, stating that the win would "definitely boost my confidence a little bit" and that she simply wants to "enjoy the moment." Kim, a two-time winner this season, finished two strokes behind Yin after a 71, dropping back with a three-putt bogey on the par-3 16th hole. Sei Young Kim, Yin's playing partner, dropped four shots on the following three holes, ending with a 73 and tying for fourth place.
Allisen Corpuz took third place at 11 under after a 68, followed by Solheim Cup teammate Rose Zhang at four strokes back with Sei Young Kim.
