LYDIA KO WON FOR THE FIRST TIME on the LPGA Tour since 2016.

Ko set up an eagle 3 on the first playoff hole at the LPGA MEDIHEAL Championship with what some are calling the shot of year (at least so far). She struck a 3-wood from over 230 yards that rolled to within three feet of the cup. And then she sank the putt to clinch the title.

"To pull that off then was probably the best shot that I've seen," said her playoff opponent Minjee Lee.

Ko now has 15 victories on the LPGA Tour. She will turn 21 this week.
