NAPLES, Fla. -- Cristie Kerr was the player of the week. Lydia Ko was the player of the year and pocketed another $1 million bonus. Inbee Park will be among the players of all-time.
One tournament, three women celebrating.
And just as the LPGA intended, the season finale was brimming with drama until the very end.
Kerr won the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship, taking command with a 12-foot eagle putt on the par-5 17th and finishing off her 18th career victory. Her $500,000 first prize seemed almost ancillary, given the stakes that Ko and Park were playing for this week.
