VIENNA, Ohio (Ticker) - The shorter drought ended.

Korea's Mi-Hyun Kim birdied the 17th hole Sunday and held on to win the Giant Eagle LPGA Classic by one stroke for her first triumph in nearly two years.

Heading to the 17th tee, Kim was tied with second-round leader Kelly Robbins, who was seeking her first victory since 1999. While Robbins pulled her drive past a cart path, Kim left her approach shot just three feet from the cup and made the birdie to take sole possession of the lead.

Robbins also pulled her approach into the gallery at the 18th hole but nearly holed a chip that would have forced Kim to birdie. Instead, Kim two-putted for par and her fourth win in as many years on the LPGA Tour.

The 1999 LPGA Rookie of the Year, Kim shot a 3-under-par 69 on Sunday and won the $150,000 first prize with a 54-hole total of 14-under 202. Her last victory came in the 2000 Safeway LPGA Championship.

Robbins started the day with a one-stroke lead but carded a 71 and settled for a fifth runner-up finish since her last victory at the season-opening Healthsouth Inaugural in 1999.

Dorothy Delasin made a valiant bid for a "three-peat" at the Squaw Creek Country Club, firing a 5-under 67 to join Korea's Grace Park in a third-place tie at 205. The 21-year-old Californian was trying to become the eighth player in LPGA history to post three consecutive wins at the same event.
