Yamashita Wins 2025 Women's Open in Wales

Miyu Yamashita secured her first major victory at the 2025 AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl, finishing at 11 under par and two shots ahead of England's Charley Hull. Hull staged a dramatic comeback with a third-round 66 and a final-round 69, but ended as runner-up for the second time in three years. Minami Katsu tied for second with Hull, while Rio Takeda finished fourth. The tournament featured a record prize purse, awarding nearly $1.5 million to the winner. English players Georgia Hall, Mimi Rhodes, and Lottie Woad also delivered strong performances. World No. 1 Nelly Korda fell out of contention following a difficult third round.
