NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa. — Sei Young Kim shot a sensational seven-under 63 on Sunday to earn her first major title at the Women’s P.G.A. Championship.

Kim, a 27-year-old South Korean, finished at 14-under 266 at Aronimink Golf Course. She entered the tournament with 10 L.P.G.A. Tour wins, the most among active players without a major championship.

Her 63 was the best round of the tournament. She finished five shots ahead of the runner-up, Inbee Park, who shot 65 on Sunday.

“Sei Young was just really untouchable,” Park said.

Kim, a 2016 Olympian, was runner-up at the 2015 Women’s P.
