Chun wins Women's PGA after late Thompson collapse

In Gee Chun claimed a one-shot victory at the Women's PGA Championship at Congressional Country Club after Lexi Thompson bogeyed two of her final three holes.

Chun went into the final round three shots clear of the field, but in windy conditions hit four bogeys on the front nine and allowed the chasers, which included Thompson to come back at her.

Thompson then pressed two ahead before Chun capitalised with a birdie on the 16th as the American dropped a shot.

Thompson would bogey the 17th as well and could only par the last as Chun secured two more pars - which finished with a clutch five-foot putt on the 18th green - to secure her third major title.

Chun started her competition at Congressional Country Club by breaking the course record and equalling the lowest opening round in Women's PGA Championship history.

She then followed her eight-under-par 64 with further rounds of 69, 75 and a final 75 on Sunday.

"It means a lot [to win] because I didn't have any victories for almost three-and-a-half years," Chun said after lifting the trophy. "So, I really appreciate all of my sponsors because they always believed in me.

"My family, coach, managers and my caddie and my fans in Korea, they all never gave up on me no matter how I did. Thank you so much."

Sky Sports pundit Dame Laura Davies said: "Lexi had it in her grasp, the chip on 16 changed the whole day. If she birdies the hole, she's cruising to victory.

"But fair play to In Gee, even though she wasn't having the day she wanted, she stuck in there in case anything happened, and sure enough it did happen and she was there.

"That two putt at the last was fantastic."

For Thompson, it's another finale to a competition that will keep her up at night. At the US Open last year,
