Golf-Hull claims Tour finale, Ariya wins season honours (Reuters)

Nov 20 (Reuters) - Britain's Charley Hull won the LPGA season-ending CME Group Tour Championship with a two-shot swing at the 17th on Sunday, while Ariya Jutanugarn of Thailand clinched a million-dollar bonus and Player of the Year honours.

Hull shot a bogey-free six-under-par 66 to out duel Ryu So-yeon of South Korea (67) at Tiburon Golf Club in Naples, Florida, posting a 19-under total of 269 to claim the $500,000 top prize for her first LPGA Tour victory.

The Briton was tied with Ryu on 18-under heading to the penultimate hole where Hull birdied the par-five, while Ryu took a bogey after having to hit out sideways from a greenside bunker.
