Lydia Ko made history at the Paris Olympics by winning the gold medal in women's golf, completing her collection of Olympic medals with a gold, silver from Rio, and bronze from Tokyo. Ko shot a final round of one-under-par 71, finishing two strokes ahead of Germany's Esther Henseleit and earning her 27th LPGA Hall of Fame point in the process. Despite a double bogey on the 13th hole, Ko held her composure and birdied the final hole to secure her victory. This win marks Ko as the first golfer in modern history to win medals in three consecutive Olympic Games and the 35th player to qualify for the LPGA Hall of Fame. American players, including defending champion Nelly Korda, struggled in the final round, failing to secure medals. Ko's triumph at just 27 years old solidifies her legacy as one of the sport's all-time greats.
