For the second week in a row, Australia came up short at Kasumigaseki Country Club as Hannah Green’s three-under final round was not enough to secure a medal.
The 22-year-old has been on a tear in 2021, winning three times – highlighted by capturing her first Major last week at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.
It was the sixth win of her LPGA career, and along with getting the Major monkey off her back at a young age, Korda will also rise to No.1 in the world for the first time.
The structure is not there this year, which will force longer hitters, at least, to decide between laying up short of the water or going for the green in two and running the risk of the ball reaching the penalty area.
