Aditi finishes 33rd as Allisen Corpuz wins U.S. Women's Open

On Sunday, Corpuz became the first American in 20 years to make the US Open her first LPGA title

India's Aditi Ashok enjoyed her best round of the week, an even par 72 with just one birdie and a bogey, to finish tied 33rd, as Allisen Corpuz won the U.S. Women's Open after closing with a 3-under 69 here.

On Sunday, Corpuz became the first American in 20 years to make the US Open her first LPGA title.

Corpuz, who finished at 9-under 279, was the only player to break par all four days.

For Aditi, playing her record 25th Major, it was not the best of weeks as she shot 74-74-76-72 for 8-over and it included a quadruple on Par-4 eighth hole on the second day.

Corpuz, 25, from Hawaii, pulled away with a big par putt and back-to-back birdies on the back nine to enjoy a scenic walk up the 18th fairway. She won by three shots over Charley Hull (66) and Jiyai Shin (68) and claimed the USD 2 million prize, the richest ever for an LPGA major champion.

When she tapped in for par, she covered her smile with her hand and wiped tears away with her Aloha-print towel.

Former President Barack Obama was among the first to congratulate her on Twitter. Both went to Punahou School in Honolulu.
