Inbee Park uses two late birdies to win LPGA Tour’s Ochoa Invitational

Inbee Park won the Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Mexico City, holding off Carlota Ciganda for her fifth victory of the season and 17th LPGA Tour title.

The second-ranked South Korean star birdied the final two holes for a bogey-free eight-under 64 and a three-stroke victory over Ciganda in cloudy conditions at tree-lined Club de Golf Mexico.

Ciganda shot a 63. The Spaniard eagled the par-five second hole and had eight birdies and a bogey.

Park finished at 18-under 270. She was making her first start since withdrawing in China two weeks ago because of a cyst on her left middle finger.

South Korea’s Sei Young Kim was third at 13 under after a 66.

Top-ranked Lydia Ko skipped skipping the tournament to rest for her title defense next week in the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship in Naples, Florida.

Broberg wins BMW Masters in a playoff

Kristoffer Broberg sank a 10-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole to win the BMW Masters in Shanghai over Patrick Reed.

Broberg and Reed both finished regulation at 17-under 271, each missing birdie putts on the 18th hole that would have won the tournament.

Two other title contenders, Thailand’s Thongchai Jaidee and South Korea’s An Byeong-hun, also barely missed birdie putts on the 18th to get in the playoff.

They finished in a four-way tie for third place with Henrik Stenson and Lucas Bjerregaard at 16 under.

Fourth round of OHL Classic suspended

Russell Knox had six birdies in 11 holes and was tied with Graeme McDowell when the fourth round of the rain-delayed OHL Classic at Mayakoba in Playa del Carmen, Mexico was suspended.

McDowell birdied the par-five 13th before it was too dark to continue. Knox was on the 13th hole.

They were at 19-under par.

It will be the second straight week that a PGA Tour event went to Monday because of rain. That hasn’t happened in 10 years.

Knox won the HSBC Champions last week in Shanghai. He can become the first player since Camilo Villegas in 2008 to win his first two PGA Tour titles in successive weeks.

Jason Bohn was at 17 under through 12 holes.

Derek Fathauer, the 54-hole leader, was 1 over for the day and four shots back.
