Mexico City (AFP) - Park In-Bee capped her final round with back-to-back birdies to win the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, setting up a tantalizing showdown with world No. 1 Lydia Ko in next week's season-ending Tour Championship.

The 27-year-old South Korean Park fired an eight-under 64 to reach a 18-under 270 total and finish three strokes ahead of playing partner Carlota Ciganda on Sunday.

Spain's Ciganda closed with a 63 while US LPGA Tour rookie-of-the-year Kim Sei-Young, who was the other player in the final group, finished third, five strokes back of Park.
