Marina Alex won the Palos Verdes Championship for her second LPGA Tour title, breaking a tie with a two-putt birdie on par-5 on the 16th and parring the final two holes for a one-stroke victory over Jin Young Ko. This was the first time ever the club hosted an LPGA tour event. Community members came out in full force to support the tournament. From volunteering at the event to hosting golfers and caddies in their homes, residents came out to support this inaugural event at PVGC.
