Hannah Green made a stunning 30-foot birdie on the final hole to clinch a one-stroke victory over Celine Boutier at the LPGA Tour's HSBC Women's World Championship in Singapore on Sunday.

Yuna Nishimura (66) had the equal-best round of the day as her six birdies in a blemish free final round lifted her to 9-under 279 and into a four-way tie for third with Brooke Henderson (68) of Smiths Falls, Ont., Mi Hyang Lee (67) and Nasa Hataoka (69).

Green made six birdies, three of which came in the final three holes, against one bogey in a final round 67 for a 13-under-par 275 at Sentosa Golf Club.

It was the 27-year-old Australian's fourth LPGA title, and first since the JM Eagle LA Championship last year. "I knew on the greens I needed to be aggressive and make sure I got the putt past the hole versus leaving them short," said Green after her dramatic finish. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/LPGAWinnerSelfie?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#LPGAWinnerSelfie</a> with <a href="https://twitter.com/hannahgreengolf?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@hannahgreengolf</a>!
