Miyu Yamashita put on a show on the final day of the LET's Aramco Korea Championship, firing a course record of 63 (-9) to win by three strokes with a total of 22 under par. The world No 5 led from the 36-hole mark and was bogey-free once again at New Korea Country Club. Yamashita began well with birdies on the third, fifth, eighth and 10th holes to put herself in a good position with seven holes to go.
However, the Czech Republic's Sara Kouskova was hot on her heels, but the 25-year-old major champion rolled in three birdies in four holes before making an eagle on 17 to seal her fourth win of 2026. It was the Japanese star's second title on the Ladies European Tour (LET), having also won the 2025 AIG Women's Open. Today my shot, my putting, everything was feeling so good.
I like this course," said Yamashita. "It's my first time playing this tournament and I'm so happy to win, and I also didn't think I could win so many times, so I'm happy about that." Kouskova finished in solo second place on 19-under-par, after she also fired a course record of 63 (-9) at New Korea Country Club. Hong Kong's Ginnie Ding and Chinese Taipei's Yani Tseng ended the week in a share of third place on 16-under-par.
Ding produced a bogey-free 66 (-6) on the final day to record her best-ever result on the LET. LET rookie duo Anna Morgan of the United States and Stephanie Bunque of Australia finished in a tie for fifth place on 14-under-par. China's Ruixin Liu and Korea's Hyo Joo Kim were T7 on 13-under-par with Italy's Roberta Liti and France's Celine Herbin-Marshall one shot further back rounding out the top 10.
