Women's British Open champion Miyu Yamashita matched the low final round with a 7-under 65 and birdied the first playoff hole to win the Maybank Championship for her second LPGA Tour title of her rookie season. Yamashita, a 24-year-old from Japan, defeated 54-hole leader Hye-Jin Choi of South Korea and Hannah Green of Australia. Choi has 29 career runner-up finishes without a win on the tour, and this was her third time with a 54-hole lead.
