Linn Grant fires final-round 65, earns title at The Annika

Sweden's Linn Grant notched her second LPGA title and first since 2023, shooting a 5-under-par 65 on Sunday to win by three strokes at The Annika at Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Fla.

Grant -- who entered the tournament with four top-10 finishes in 2025 -- was strong on the front nine with four birdies, then added two more on the back nine before closing with a bogey on the par-4 18th hole.

"Very satisfying," the 26-year-old Grant said. "We were talking about it yesterday, how full circle it is. I mean, I've been talking about it in (the) media all week. I've been playing in (Annika Sorenstam's) events, and it's just so fun to obviously win anything, but to stand here with her tournament."

Jennifer Kupcho, who began the day one shot back of the lead, shot a 3-under 67 to finish second, one stroke ahead of Mexico's Gaby Lopez (65 on Sunday).

Auston Kim and Great Britain's Charley Hull shot 7-under 63, tied for the lowest round of the day, and were joined in fourth place by Lucy Li (66). Grace Kim, who entered the day three shots off the pace, shot a 69 and fell into a ninth-place tie with Brooke Matthews.

Matthews, in contention after a 64 on Saturday, provided one of the highlights Sunday with a hole-in-one -- the first of her career -- on the par-3 12th hole. The 27-year-old took home a Lamborghini for achieving the feat.

"It was wild. All week I was like, ‘I want to win the Lamborghini,'" said Matthews, who shot a 65 on Sunday. "Yeah, (142) yards. I think it was playing 9-iron. Just saw it bounce. I still can't believe it. I blacked out. I can't wait to watch it on film because I still can't really remember it."

Kupcho, 28, had an eventful front nine, posting four birdies along with a pair of bogeys, but managed to remain in contention and notched one more birdie on the back nine in search of her second title of the season.

"I think I played really well this week," said Kupcho, who won the ShopRite LPGA Classic in June. "I guess, I don't know for sure, but I feel like in the past years that score would've won. Linn just played amazing. She hit so many good shots this weekend. I played with her both days. Unbelievable golf by her."

The 32-year-old Lopez, seeking her fourth LPGA title and first since 2022, drained four of her six birdies on the back nine and finished strong at 4-under on her last seven holes to keep the pressure on.

"Those four birdies on the back nine, it was more of I was getting a little frustrated on the back nine because I made a bad swing on 8 and then I told myself like I'm just not going to press as hard as I've pressed before," she said. At the end of the day, I think that being calm pays off."
