Watch: The putt to win $4 million for Jeeno Thitikul at CME Group Tour Championship
Jeeno Thitikul birdied the 72nd hole Sunday to win the CME Group Tour Championship and earn the largest check in LPGA history.
Thitikul made a 5-foot putt on the final hole at Tiburon Golf Club to beat Angel Yin by a shot and collect the $4 million first-place prize.
The putt was set up by a gorgeous approach shot into 18th green.
And all this came on the heels of an eagle at the par-5 17th. Thitikul was trailing Yin by two shots when she drew even with this putt.
Thitikul shot 7-under 65 to Yin’s 66 in the final round to finish one shot clear at 22 under.
