Ayaka Furue's first major championship was a thriller.
Furue went five under on her final five holes—capped off by an eagle on No. 18—to come roaring back and earn a one-stroke victory over Stephanie Kyriacou. The 24-year-old finished at 19 under overall and shot a six-under 65 in the final round.
Furue and Kyriacou went into No. 18 tied at 17 under in a three-way lead with Patty Tavatanakit, who finished in third place. Furue hit a pair of clinical shots to set herself up with an eagle to win her first major, while an errant drive forced Kyriacou to play catch up on her way to a birdie.
