Who won the 2024 AIG British Women's Open?


Lydia Ko ended an eight-year major drought by claiming the AIG Women's Open after a tense finish in blustery conditions at St Andrews.

The New Zealander, who won the Olympic gold medal earlier this month, birdied the last as she closed with a three-under-par 69 to win her third major on seven under.

Last year's champion Lilia Vu failed to hole a 15-foot birdie putt on the last to force a play-off and then missed from 12 inches to gift Ko a two-shot victory.

Vu's 73 saw her finish joint second alongside world number one Nelly Korda, who faded in the closing holes and posted a 72, overnight leader Jiyai Shin (74) and China's Ruoning Yin (70).
