Nelly Korda is a major champion for the third time and back to No. 1 in women's golf.
Korda put on a masterclass at The Chevron Championship.
She polished off her wire-to-wire win at Memorial Park with a five-shot victory.
The victory was enough for her to return to the top of the women's world ranking for the first time since last August.
Korda started with a five-shot lead and no one got closer than four shots all day.
She played conservatively down the stretch and missed out on a chance to set the tournament's 72-hole scoring record.
