JUST weeks after confirming her participation in the upcoming ISPS Handa Australian Women’s Open, Hannah Green has claimed her third LPGA Tour title in 2024 with a victory at the BMW Ladies Championship in Korea.
In a tournament played at the Seowon Valley Country Club, Green birdied the difficult 17th hole in posting a 19-under par total, holding off Frenchwoman Celine Boutier to win by one shot.
The event boasted a stellar field including eight of the LPGA Tour’s top 10 ranked players and 17 of the 18 tournament winners from 2024.
Following a win in South Korea, her third on the LPGA Tour in 2024, Hannah Green is heading home to compete in the Australian Women’s Open.
“Obviously it’s difficult to win tournaments, but I think having experienced it and having confidence on the right side of things, it makes it easier,” Green said.
“But don’t get me wrong, I was still really nervous playing those last three holes.”
The win saw Green become the first Australian woman since Karrie Webb in 2006 to win three LPGA Tour events in the same year. She can now look forward to returning home and to trying to claim a maiden Australian Open title.
“I’ve come close a couple of times and hopefully this is the year I can get my hands on the trophy,” Green said.
Green will be joined in the field at the Australian Open by two-time defending champion Ashleigh Buhai and young Australians Gabriela Ruffels, Stephanie Kyriacou and Grace Kim.
