  • England’s Lottie Woad took third at 18 under, with Japan’s Miyu Yamashita fourth and a group including No. 2 Nelly Korda tied for fifth at 15 under.
  • The victory is Hull’s third LPGA Tour title and follows two recent runner-up finishes, with the tour moving next to the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship on September 19.
