Forget your Ochoas, Sorenstams and Creamers... say hello to 19-year-old Korean, Inbee Park, who became the youngest Women's Open champion at Interlachen CC, Minnesota. While all the big names bottled it, Park shot a two-under par 71 in the final round to finish at nine-under par and win by four strokes.

Winner of the 2002 US Girls' Junior championship, this was Inbee's maiden tour victory and as far as first bits of silverware to put in the trophy cabinet go, they don't come much better than this. It wasn't a great day for 54-hole leader Stacy Lewis, however. The 23-year-old Texan double-bogeyed her first hole, carding a dissapointing five-over to share third with In-Kyung Kim and brazil's Angela Park.

Sweden's Helen Alfredsson finished second after a final round 75, with Norway's Suzann Pettersen tied 13th on even par. Annika Sorenstam would have loved to have gone out with a bang at her final US Open, but a final round 78 saw her finish at five-over par.
