Sung Hyun Park, 25, rose from second to first place in the world rankings on Monday. She takes first place from her friend Jin Young Ko, the South Korean player who sprayed water on her head on the 18th green.

"It would be great to be back on top, but to be honest there was a lot of pressure when I was number one"Sung Hyun Park said through a translator. “But I wouldn't want to keep that in mind, because I would be under pressure. But again, it would be good to be the No.1. "

Sung Hyun Park closed with a 66 (-5) to finish 195 (-18) at Pinnacle Country Club. She put in a barely 30 inch putt in the 18th to beat Danielle Kang, Hyo Joo Kim and Inbee Park with one stroke.

"To be honest my tour today did not go as well as I thought it would"said Sung Hyun Park. “I knew it was important to make a lot of birdies in the going nine, there were a lot of opportunities. … But I spoke to my caddy, and we both said there was still a lot of hope. Each strike was very important. "

Kang, Kim and Inbee Park each received a score of 65, Kang playing the last five holes with 5 under par, notably thanks to an eagle on 14 par-5 and birdies on the last three.

"I finished really well," said Kang. “I gave everything I had in the last 9 holes, I missed a shot. I wish we could go to the playoff, but I knew Sung Hyun would use an iron on the last hole. "

She did, and just 150 yards. The ball landed about 9 feet to the left of the flagstick to prepare for the two-stroke birdie.

Sung Hyun Park had birdies on the four par-5 holes in the final. She played 18th in 4 shots under par during the first three rounds, performing an eagle on Friday and a birdie on Saturday to share first place in the second round with Carlota Ciganda.

She won the HSBC Women's World Championship in Singapore in early March and placed second last week at Minnesota in the major KPMG Women's PGA Championship.

Inbee Park missed an opportunity to win its 20th title on the LPGA tour and is first since the start of last season.

"I had a lot of birdie chances, but I wasn't able to convert them," She says. “My putting was just a little weak compared to other parts of my game today. "

Brittany Altomare was fifth at 66 (-16). Ciganda had a 69 to finish at 15 under par with Ryann O'Toole (64), Mi Jung Hur (64) and Daniela Darquea (67).

No French out of the 3 involved succeeded in crossing the cut set at 2 under the following in the second round.
