Lydia Ko cannot stop winning golf tournaments
Lydia Ko won the New Zealand Women's Open on Sunday for the second-straight year after almost shooting 59 earlier in the week.
Forget shooting her age, Lydia Ko is trying to match her age in professional wins before she turns 20. The 17-year-old won again on Sunday at the New Zealand Women's Open.
It was her second-straight win (she took the Australian Open last week) as well as her second-straight New Zealand Women's Open title.
After nearly rocking the golf world by flirting with 59 in the second of just three rounds at the tournament, Ko closed with a 71 to win by four strokes over Hannah Davis.
Ko, who is from New Zealand, seemed thrilled to go back-to-back in front of the home patrons.
"I really wanted to win in front of such great crowds," she said. "This is probably the biggest crowd I've seen. It's always cool winning on home ground."
She also seems pretty comfortable with winning in general.
"The more W’s the better," said Ko. "I think I had a really good (offseason) break, which got me fresh going into this year."
I'll say. Ko now has 10 wins worldwide, including three now on the Ladies European Tour with the two New Zealand Opens and Australian Open from last week.
