Jeeno Thitikul turned a late disaster into a champion’s finish on Sunday, birdieing the final two holes to win the LOTTE Championship at Hoakalei Country Club in Hawaii for her fourth LPGA Tour victory of the 2026 season.

Thitikul carried the lead into the final round and looked in control until the par-4 16th, where she drove into the water and made double bogey to fall into a tie with Ina Yoon. Her answer was immediate: a 20-foot birdie putt on the 17th, then one more birdie on the par-5 18th to close with a 4-under 68 and a 21-under 267 total, three shots clear of Yoon.

“I totally have no idea how I did that,” Thitikul said. “It was a really good battle with In-a. She played incredible on the front nine. The 16th was terrible, a terrible hole for me. But I just tell myself that it’s two holes left and everything can happen.”

Yoon finished second at 18 under, with Japan’s Miyu Yamashita third at 17 under and American Auston Kim fourth at 16 under. Thitikul earned $450,000 from the $3 million purse.

The victory ties Thitikul with Nelly Korda for the most wins on tour in 2026. At just 23 years old, the Thai star now has 11 LPGA titles, 65 top-10 finishes in 101 starts, and career earnings past $20 million.
