Lydia Ko gets it done by winning CME Group Tour and LPGA Player of the Year

The unflappable South Korean Lydia Ko put together a streak of 63 greens in regulation despite the bum wrist at the CME in a remarkable display of ball-striking to lift her fifth trophy of the year on the LPGA. She leaves Naples, Florida, with a $1.5 million paycheck, the largest in women’s golf, and the title of LPGA Rolex Player of the Year. Ko entered the final round tied for the lead with Nelly Korda, Nasa Hataoka and Celine Boutier at Tiburón Golf Club. Ko, 26, now has 12 LPGA victories, tying her with Sei Young Kim and Ariya Jutanugarn on the all-time list. The CME was her 81st LPGA start. The $1.5 million prize pushes her past $9 million in her career.
