  "account": "SHANGHAI witnessed home hero Yin Ruoning clinch her second consecutive LPGA Tour titles with a dramatic one-stroke victory on Sunday. The 24-year-old finished the tournament on 11-under, one shot ahead of her overnight leader Choi Hye-jin. Yin's previous LPGA triumph came at the FM Championship in Boston in August. Choi, South Korea's top player, had dominated the first three rounds, leading by two strokes. However, she succumbed to Yin's resurgence, bogeying the seventh and eighth holes. Yin, buoyed by the enthusiastic support of Shanghai fans, made her breakthrough, with four of her five birdies coming in her final nine holes. She sealed the win with a crucial birdie putt at the 17th hole. Choi finished with a score of eight-under, followed by Japan's Rio Takeda at nine-under.",
