HAINAN ISLAND, China (AP) -- Sei Young Kim made a 6-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th for a one-stroke victory Sunday in the Blue Bay LPGA.
The 22-year-old South Korean player won for the third time in her rookie season on the LPGA Tour, closing with a 2-under 70 at Jian Lake Blue Bay for a 2-under 286 total.
After high wind sent scores soaring the first three days on the difficult course, the players faced only a moderate breeze on a rainy afternoon along the South China Sea.
Third-ranked Stacy Lewis, fellow American Kim Kaufman and Taiwan's Candie Kung finished a stroke back.
