Nelly Korda wins U.S. Women's Open, edges Gaby López by one stroke

Nelly Korda has claimed her first U.S. Women's Open title, capping a dominant performance with a final round of even par to finish at eight under for the tournament.

The American golfer secured the victory with a clutch par putt on the 18th hole, narrowly denying Mexico's Gaby López and England's Charley Hull a chance at a playoff. López had mounted a late charge, sinking a birdie on the 18th to post a final-round 68, three under par, finishing just one shot back.

This major championship win is the fourth of Korda's career and her second consecutive major victory this season, following her triumph at the Chevron Championship. It solidifies her position as one of the leading players in women's golf.

Korda's triumph at the U.S. Women's Open adds a prestigious title to her growing list of accomplishments. The win underscores her consistent performance throughout the season and her ability to perform under pressure on the biggest stages in golf.
