Turnberry (United Kingdom) (AFP) - South Korea's Park Inbee claimed her seventh major on Sunday when she carded seven birdies and an eagle in an outstanding record-equalling final round of 65 to win the Women's British Open.

A 12 under par 276 total gave the 27-year-old world number one a second major of the season to set alongside her third successive LPGA Championship in June.
