Miyu Yamashita won the Women’s Open, but Charley Hull stole the show

PORTHCAWL, Wales – For Miyu Yamashita, Sunday evening signalled it was finally time to celebrate. The Japanese golfer and LPGA rookie had just won her first major, the AIG Women’s Open at Royal Porthcawl, one day after turning 24. Yamashita looked unflappable ever since she grabbed hold of the lead on Friday and never let go. She made her first and only bogey of the day on the 17th hole. Before then, she had been the only player not to bogey a single hole in the closing round of the championship
