Ji triumphs in Florida

Ji Eun-hee won the LPGA Tournament of Champions on Sunday, firing a 1-under par 70 for a two-shot triumph over fellow South Korean Lee Mi-rim. On a day when chillier temperatures and gusty winds made life more difficult at the Four Seasons Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, Ji shook off back-to-back opening bogeys to seize her fifth LPGA title. The 32-year-old, a former US Women’s Open champion, started the day tied for the lead with former world No. 1 Lydia Ko. But the New Zealander faded with a 6-over 77, leaving her in eighth place, seven shots adrift. American Nelly Korda finished third with an even-par 71 for 273. Thai Moriya Jutanugarn and China’s Feng Shanshan shared fourth on 274.
