Inbee Park Validates No. 1 Status with Win at Women’s British Open
The world’s top female golfer, Inbee Park, continues her domination of the game winning the Women’s British Open on Sunday by three-strokes.

Park managed an incredible final round, carding 7 birdies and 1 eagle to surpass compatriot Jin Young Ko with a 12-under 276 total.  Marking the South Korean’s seventh career major title and her fourth win of the season.  An even more impressive stat – Park has now won the last six out of 14 major events!

“It’s the greatest day of my life yet, for sure,” said Park afterwards.  “It was a great day of golf today.  I played great out there.  Even though I made a couple of early mistakes, I was able to hold on really well on the back nine.”

The 27-year-old’s record clearly speaks for itself, proving Park well and truly deserves her No. 1 status.

“I finally reached my goal,” the golfer continued.  “It’s just a relief.  I’m so happy with everything.  I didn’t feel that confident before this week, but to overcome a lot of things to win this championship is phenomenal.”

With her victory at Turnberry over the weekend, Park (according to some) has now completed her career Grand Slam.  Last year the LPGA instated the Evian Championship as the Tour’s fifth major.  Park had won this event the previous year, leaving opinions divided on whether or not the golfer has actually reached this impressive goal.





With the fifth and final major of the season set to take place in France next month, Park is now firmly focused on continuing her winning streak. We don’t think she’ll have any problems!
