South Korean golfer Kim In-kyung has captured a Ladies European Tour (LET) event in Germany.
Kim won the ISPS Handa Ladies European Masters at Golf Club Hubbelrath in Dusseldorf, Germany, on Sunday (local time), at 17-under 271. After shooting a bogey-free round of 63 in the final round, Kim defeated Belen Mozo of Spain by five strokes and cashed in 75,000 euros (84,270 US dollars).
Kim, a three-time winner on the US LPGA Tour, now also has three wins on the LTE. She also won the ISPS Handa Ladies European Masters in 2014, when it was held in England, and the 2009 Omega Dubai Ladies Masters.
Kim began the final day at eight-under, one off the lead held by Mozo, and picked up four shots on the front nine, thanks to three straight birdies starting at the fifth.
Kim added another birdie at the 10th and went on another birdie barrage, with three in a row from the 12th. She finished off her round by draining a five-foot birdie putt at the 18th.
