At this point in Jin Yonug Ko’s career winning isn’t about the money she collects, but rather the legacy she continues to leave behind. In picking up her 14th career LPGA title with a two-shot win at the HSBC Women’s World Championship, the 27-year-old Ko can put a close on the longest stretch of poor play in her still young career and refocus a chase to some day get into the LPGA Hall of Fame (she had 19 points, with 27 needed to qualify).
That said, Ko’s win at Sentosa Golf Club in Singapore was a lucrative won as she claimed a $270,000 first-place prize money payout from the $1.8 million purse. The check bumps Ko up two spots to 22nd on the all-time career money list with $10,680,535, passing Yani Tseng and Ariya Jutanugarn.
