Surging Ko claims Queen City crown

LOS ANGELES, United States — Lydia Ko continued her late-season surge on Sunday (Monday in Manila), firing a sensational nine-under par 63 to win the US LPGA Queen City Championship by five strokes on the heels of her Olympic and British Open triumphs.

New Zealand's Ko started the day two shots behind Thailand's Atthaya 'Jeeno' Thitikul, but she seized control with an eagle at the 11th and powered to victory with a 23-under par total of 265.
