Perth’s Hannah Green has bounced back from five missed cuts in her last six starts to finish tied for 5th at the LPGA Tour’s BMW Ladies Championship in Korea.
A final round of 66, included four birdies in her last five holes after beginning the day by playing her opening four holes in 4 under, allowing her to improve to her share of 5th place, albeit eight shots from the winner, Sei Young Kim.
Green moves to 50th in the Race to the CME Globe rankings, a return to defend her title in the event, along with considerable work on her game, including on her attitude, assisting her to her second-best finish of the 2025 season.
“Yeah, obviously it has been a while since I’ve had this form,” said Green.
“So it’s nice to see what I’ve been working on is actually paying off. Yeah, definitely, I think the team at home helped with the mental reset, just not getting too ahead of myself and not thinking too much about the future. Yeah, I am really pleased with today’s round.
“I think throughout the season I was searching to see what I was doing wrong, and instead of — usually at our level, we are always repeating, it might be just a little tweak here and there. I think because I wasn’t having the results, I was just trying to search, and it really wasn’t that complicated. I was just making it tougher for myself.
“Having a week off with no golf is really helpful at home, and being able to see my coach, I think we both agreed we were searching a little bit too much. Just going back to basics, nothing out of the ordinary. I got off to a heater. So it was nice to finish strong with three birdies to end.
Minjee Lee and Stephanie Kyriacou were the next best of the Australians when they tied for 10th while Robyn Choi was the next best in a share of 16th place.
