Haeran Ryu clawed back from a 10‑shot deficit to claim her first major, edging Ina Yoon by two strokes at the Women’s PGA Championship. The Korean shot a 2‑under 70 in the final round to finish at 13-under 275, securing the title on a blustery Sunday at Hazeltine National Golf Club. She sank the putt, and doused her in celebration.

The comeback tied the LPGA record for the largest 18‑hole comeback in a major, matching Carol Mann’s 1964 Western Open feat. Ryu’s three‑round stretch of 14‑under eclipsed the field by six strokes, while Brooke Henderson and Dewi Weber shared third at 10‑under. Three Americans—Allisen Corpuz, Auston Kim and Alison Lee—finished tied for fifth, six shots back in the tournament overall.

Rain and thunderstorm delays pushed tee times three and a half hours later, leaving the greens soft and the wind gusting through Hazeltine’s long fairways. Nelly Korda’s 73 on the final round dropped her to a four‑way tie for eighth, ending any chance of a season sweep. Ryu’s victory cements her status as the tour’s breakout rookie in 2026 now.
