Hannah Green in command from start to finish made the double, winning with panache her first major title, the 2019 KPMG Womens PGA Championship, which is also her first victory on the LPGA Tour. Green enters the very closed circle of the nine players to have achieved this “two first” feat during this Major tournament: Hannah Green / 2019, Danielle Kang / 2017, Shanshan Feng / 2012, Anna Nordqvist / 2009, Yani Tseng / 2008, Se Ri Pak / 1998, Sherri Turner / 1988, Sandra Post / 1968 and Gloria Ehret / 1966.

With her victory at Hazeltine, Hannah Green became the third Australian to have her name engraved on the KPMG Womens PGA Championship trophy. Karrie Webb (2001) and Jan Stephenson (1982) led the way Green followed on Sunday at Hazeltine. These three players are also the only Australians to have won a major LPGA championship, with seven wins for Webb and three for Stephenson.

Hannah Green became the third player to win the KPMG Womens PGA Championship in wire-to-wire (without equality), joining Yani Tseng (2011) and Se Ri Pak (1998).

With Hannah Green's victory today at the KPMG Womens PGA Championship, an international player won this major championship for the 17th time in 19 years, until 2001. The two Americans who won in those nearly two decades were Danielle Kang (2017, Kemper Lakes Golf Club) and Cristie Kerr (LPGA Championship 2010, Locust Hill Country Club).

For the second time in three years, the reigning KPMG Womens PGA Championship champion fought valiantly to finish second in a row. Sung Hyun Park finished with a 68 (-4) Sunday, his best effort in the Championship, to finish a stroke behind Hannah Green. Two years ago at Kemper Lakes, 2016 champion Brooke Henderson made a serious bet to win back-to-back championships, but finished one stroke behind Danielle Kang.

The only player on the course to record four laps under par-72 this week Hazeltine was Sung Hyun Park (70-71-71-68), who finished second, one behind Hannah Green.

Mel Reid nearly scored the biggest win in KPMG Womens PGA Championship history. On the heels of Hannah Green, leader on 54 holes by nine strokes, as Sunday's final approached, Reid posted his best result of the year, a 66 (-6). The record (-7) was set in 1983 by Patty Sheehan, who clocked a final round of 66 to beat Sandra Haynie and win the first of her five career major championships.

Reid finished tied for third place, surpassing her previous best result, T-9 at the 2015 AIG Women's British Open. Ahead of this week, her best KPMG Womens PGA Championship result was last year at Kemper Lakes (T-60).

Nelly Korda played well on Sunday with a 71 under par. She finished with a total of 282 (-6) over 4 days to place third with Mel Reid. In doing so, Korda recorded her best result in a major championship and her second career top-10 in a major tournament (T-10, US Women's Open 2018).

If Nasa Hataoka's 65 on Sunday, the lowest round in the championship, sounded oddly familiar to her, it's because she scored 64 in the final last year at the KPMG Womens PGA Championship at Kemper Lakes. Her 64 from last year set a Championship record for the lowest round four score and saw Hataoka advance to the three-player play-off (she eventually retired after the first hole).

On the French side, Céline Boutier and Karine Icher finish this KPMG Womens PGA Championship with an identical final card of 74 (+2), finishing respectively in 53rd place (294, +6) and 74th place (299, +11)
